## Opinion text

Smith, J.'
I concur with Judge Swing in the conclusion reached by him. Mr. Carew having had knowledge of this action of the board of equalization, and having regularly paid the tax on the valuation as thus raised, ought not in equity at the end of five years be allowed to come in and obtain a refunder of the amounts so paid by him, and have the duplicate corrected by deducting therefrom the addition made with his knowledge, and practically with his consent.
