Facts

A dispute over the price of a condemnation for an easement for sewer and water was before the court. All questions were stipulated before the court except the damages due Hinshaw (D) for the right of way. P maintained that P's property value would be enhanced by the easement and that D would have the right to tap into the city water and sewer lines even though is property was outside the city limits. During the trial, P introduced a letter from the city evidencing the offer to D. D objected, but the trial judge allowed the evidence in before any oral testimony was taken. D appealed.
