Whether the judgment below was entered by reasonoof the motion or the demurrer, or was upon the merits of the case, is involved in doubt; but taking the view presented by counsel for the appellant that it was by reason of the demurrer, the judgment should be reversed. That a parol agreement establishing the boundary between *957distinct tracts of land may be enforced in a court of equity was decided by this court in Jamison v. Petit, 6 Bush 669, and the present petition not only seeks to establish the boundary as agreed upon, but adds other reasons why the chancellor would interpose, that is, to prevent continued and repeated trespass on' the premises of the appellant by reason of the refusal of the appellee to abide by his agreement. We have examined the facts of this case also, and upon a consideration of the testimony this court is the more inclined to suppose that the case went off on the demurrer or motion, and not on the merits. There is nothing on the face of the petition showing the pendency of a similar action, and the case should have been considered below on its merits.
McKee & Finnell, for appellant.Simmons & Schmidt, Benton & Benton, for appellee.[Cited, Campbell v. Campbell, 23 Ky. L. 869, 64 S. W. 458.]
The judgment is therefore reversed and cause remanded.
This leaves the case open for additional testimony from either party.
