That being his opinion of the facts, it followed that the defendant’s right to go over the land was a right to an easement only, and seeing from the deed of 1881 that this easement was restricted to persons and horses, and that the opening into defendant’s yard was not wide enough for carts or carriages, he thought the grant made to the defendant’s predecessors was similarly limited. …
