The declaration in this case is demurrable for the reason that it sets out only that the plaintiff was possessed of a certain right of way to and from her land over and upon a certain street or highway in said city of Pawtucket. The apparent scope of the declaration is for an injury to a private way. But ordinarily a private way becomes merged in a public way, and the plaintiff does not set out in what respect any private right has been violated, Ross v. Thompson,
