The bill amends Section 34-7-4 of the General Laws in Chapter 34-7, which pertains to property rights related to possession and prescription. It introduces a new provision that explicitly denies the right of footway, except within one hundred (100) yards of the Pawtuxet River in the cities of Warwick and Cranston, or in connection with a right to pass with carriages. The act aims to clarify and restrict the acquisition of footway rights, ensuring that such rights are limited to specific geographic areas and conditions. The bill will take effect immediately upon its passage.
