Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Laws Relating to Roads and Ditches: Bridges and Water-Courses in the State of Ohio, Including State, County and Township Roads; Free Turnpikes or Improved Roads; Highways in Municipal Corporations; Toll-Roads and Turnpikes; Bridges and Culverts of All Kinds; County and Townships Ditches; Th This work is designed to contain all constitutional and statutory provisions of Ohio relating to free roads, toll-roads, bridges, culverts, ditches, including their inception, completion, use, repair, vacation, sale, or abandonment; to natural water-courses; to streets as connected with such roads; also, all pertinent reported decisions of the supreme court and inferior courts, as well as such unreported ones as could be reliably given; also, many of the opinions of the attorneys-general of Ohio, especially as to ditches; and also the most important provisions of the unwritten or common law, and of custom, recognized by courts and standard law writers as being in force here, including "the law of the road" relating to the rights, duties, etc., of the various classes of travelers and others frequenting the public highways, and the most generally applicable common law principles as to ways and roads by prescription, grant, reservation, from necessity, etc. (See chapter 22.) Logically and essentially connected with the design above mentioned are the provisions as to the purchase or appropriation of private property, including the lands over which these roads and ditches pass, as well as of the materials necessary for the construction and repair of these roads; and they will be found embodied in accordance therewith, and with the plan of the work long since announced, and as rapidly completed as the time which could be given to it would permit. A large part of the book is occupied by its numerous forms, introduced wherever their use becomes necessary. It is hoped that the work is well done, and that it will be useful to the bench and bar, as well as to the various county and township officers and others whose rights and duties relate in part to the matters treated in it. It is regretted that the volume is so large; but it is believed that the omission of any thing that would materially diminish its size would make it incomplete.
