Action by S. A. Young against the city of Henderson. From a judgment for plaintiff, defendant appeals. Reversed.
John Francis Lockett, for appellant.
Clay & Clay, for appellee.
This action was instituted by the appellee, S. A. Young, a resident and taxpayer of the city of Henderson, to enjoin the city authorities from furnishing to property outside of the city limits an electric light current from the electric light plant belonging to the city, upon the grounds that by the express terms of subsection 5 of section 3290 of the Kentucky Statutes of 1903, which is a section of the charter of cities of the third class, to which Henderson belongs, it was only authorized to provide the city and the inhabitants thereof with water, light, power, heat, telephone service, etc., and by necessary implication it was prohibited from extending such service beyond the city limits. The city, for answer says, in substance: A general demurrer was sustained to the answer, and the city perpetually enjoined from extending its electric current outside the city limits, and the city has appealed.
