86. Any action where the parties hold or claim under the same title
the lands in dispute, no warrant of resurvey shall issue, except in cases
where the parties claim different parcels under the same title, and it ap-
pears to the court there is a dispute about the location of the divisional
line or lines.

An. Code, 1924, sec. 87. 1912, sec. '82. 1904, sec. 82. 1888, sec. 79. 1852, ch. 177, sec. 5.
1872, ch. 346.
87. Where a warrant of resurvey shall be issued in any action of
ejectment or other action, the party applying for such warrant shall first
make the location of his claim and pretension, and such other location as
he may think necessary to bring the cause fairly to trial.
Since act of 1852, ch. 177, gives defendant right to take defense on warrant, plain-
tiff must locate every title paper in strict conformity with the calls, etc., and if plats
and explanations do not show them to be so located, they must be rejected at trial.

An. Code, 1924, sec. 88. 1912, sec...83. 1904, sec. 83. 1888, sec. 80. 1852, ch. 177, sec. 6.
1872, ch. 346. 1882, ch. 372.
88. It shall not be necessary in the execution of any warrant of re-
survey to locate by actual survey the whole of any tract or parcel of land;
but it shall be sufficient to locate by actual survey the beginning or any
caller other object by which the location of the tract may be proved and
such portion of the lines connected therewith as may be necessary to
show the parts of the land in controversy and the questions to be tried
and proved by witnesses to be examined in the cause; and all other lines
and objects may be located by protraction on the plats by the party mak-
ing the survey; and such locations by protraction when made by either
party shall be conclusive evidence of the correctness of any object or line
so located, unless the same shall be differently located by the other party
either by actual survey or by protraction; and in case it is so differently
located, the jury shall judge between said locations; and all locations by
protraction shall be made by course and distance according to the descrip-
tion of the lands so located, to be shown and proved by some patent, deed,
or other paper to be given in evidence and shall be connected by the course
and distance of some title paper or other competent evidence, with lines
and objects located by actual survey; but in making locations by protrac-
tion, the surveyor may correct by protraction to calls for corners or objects
already located on the plats, either by actual survey or by protraction,
and the surveyor shall hereafter return only three copies of the plats and
certificates of survey; and it shall not be necessary in said certificates to
incorporate any tables of courses and distances, but said certificates shall
contain only a brief explanation of the plats and of the tracts of land
