The statutory provisions applicable to this case are found in the code, §§2384-2393 inclusive. To ascertain and fix new lines is not within the power or functions of processioners. Their vocation is to run and mark lines which at some previous time were located and established. They seek and find lines already existing, but cannot bring into existence any which have not been before designated on the surface of the earth. Lines merely drawn on paper or in the minds of contracting parties, are not ready for the search or services of processioners. Moreover, any one dissatisfied with their work cannot protest against it and make that protest
Judgment affirmed.
