Sulaiman, C.J.1. This is a defendants' appeal arising out of a suit for an injunction and damages. The lower portion of a wall between the houses of the parties admittedly belongs to the defendants. Ten or eleven years before the suit the plaintiff was allowed to raise this wall by constructing its upper portion as part of the walls of his privy on the upper storey. The lower appellate Court has found that this construction by the plaintiff must have been made with the knowledge of the defendants, either with their consent or, at any rate, without any protest on, their part, and remained in existence for a long number of year, though not for more than 12 years. The defendants subsequently demolished the upper portion and prevented the plaintiff from reconstructing it.
