DEDICATION
(bouvier) | DEDICATION. Solemn appropriation. It may be expressed or implied.
2. An express dedication of property to public use is made by a direct
appropriation of it to such use, and it will be enforced. 2 Peters, R. 566;
6 Hill, N. Y. Rep. 407.
3. But a dedication of property to public or pious uses may be implied
from the acts of the owner. A permission to the public for the space of
eight or even six years, to use a street without bar or impediment, is
evidence from which a dedication to the public may be inferred. 2 Bouv.
