## Opinion text

FOURNET, C. J.,
is of the opinion that the application should be granted to correct what he considers to be an unwarranted award for the taking of one square of ground; furthermore, that the award for severance damage is not only excessive, but not in accordance with the law and jurisprudence of this state.
