Judge Owsley

¶1delivered the opinion of the court.

¶2We are of opinion that the inquisition taken in this cause, is fatally defective, in not stating whether or not the health of the neighbors, by the stagnation of the waters, will be annoyed; and that the county court, upon the return of the inquisition, consequently erred in giving leave to build the 'fflill.

¶3The order must therefore be reversed with cost, the cause remanded, and further proceedings had, not inconsistent with this opinion. '
