Surrey v. Piggot , 1 N.C. 153 ( 1793 )

Doderidge, J.

A way shall be extinct. But distinguendum est, whether it is a way of ease. If it is, it shall be extinct; but otherwise if it is of necessity. A fence shall be extinct, for it is not of necessity; because in the beginning there were no fences, 11 H. 7. 25. 4 Rep. Terringham’s case, 22 E. 1, Br. Extinguishment. 11 Dyer 295.
