        "text": "Mr. Justice Cartwright\ndelivered the opinion of the court:\nThe county treasurer applied to the county court of Cook county for judgment against lands of appellant for delinquent special assessment. Appellant entered a special appearance for the purpose of contesting the jurisdiction of the court, and objected to the entry of judgment on the ground that the advertisement published, giving notice of the application for judgment, was insufficient. The objection was overruled and judgment was entered.\nThe description of the lands in the advertisement of sale was as follows:\nSuperior Court partition of E. % of Sec. 2, T. 39, R. 13.\nNAME AND DESO.\nLOT. $ CTS.\nHugh T. Dickey, (ex. R. R. right of way\nand ex. Grand Av.) that part lying\ns. of Erederick St. extension of...... 1 8,690 00\nThe objector proved that Frederick street did not cross lot 1, but came up to the west line of the lot and terminated there, and he says that it could not be extended across said lot, because it was shown that Weage avenue was open across the lot directly east of the eastern terminus of Frederick street. He claims that therefore the description, \u201cthat part lying south of Frederick street extension,\u201d is an impossible description. We are unable, however, to see any difficulty in locating the premises described in the notice. It is not necessary that Frederick street should be actually extended across the lot, but the plain description is, that part of lot 1, except the railroad right of way and except Grand avenue, which would be south of Frederick street if it were extended, or south of an extension of that street.\nThe judgment will be affirmed.\nJudgment affirmed.",
