Analysis
No analysis yet. When one exists it is a model's reading of this opinion — the rulings it reviewed, whether it agrees with the court, and the authorities it checked — shown beside the court's own disposition, never in place of it. How analyses are made.
Opinion
By the Court :
The findings do not show that plaintiff has had the possession of any definite part of the mining ground in controversy, and plaintiff is therefore noi entitled to a decree based on his actual possession of any specific portion.
Nor dó the findings show that either jiarty has acquired title under the Act of Congress of May 10th, 1872; both parties having attempted to make location after the passage of that' act, and both having failed to distinctly mark their locations on the ground so that the boundaries can be readily traced.
Judgment and order reversed, and cause remanded for a new trial.
