Lingle, Engineer of Claims, State of Illinois, Department of Public Works and Buildings, in support of said motion to dismiss, and statement, brief and argument on behalf of respondent on motion to dismiss.
From the record, it appears that on September 9, 1933, George Ritter and Susannah A. Ritter, husband and wife, executed and delivered to the People of the State of Illinois, a deed dedicating a part of the lands described in the complaint herein, which deed was duly recorded November 28, 1934, in the office of the Recorder, Perry County, Illinois.
There is no allegation that the construction was not properly done or that the same was not in accordance with the plans and specifications therefor.
The dedication of the land involved was for the purpose of a public highway and, where there is a dedication for a certain purpose, the law presumes that the consideration for the dedication is based not only on the value of the land dedicated but also includes damages sustained to contiguous land of the owner by reason of the improvement.

Siekman vs. State, 10 C. C. R., 286.
There is no allegation, or showing, that the construction of the said highway or use of the land was of a nature or purpose other than that for which it was dedicated.
Subsequent to the deed of dedication and prior to the construction of the said highway, George Ritter died, leaving these claimants his heirs at law.
*405Susanna A. Bitter joined in the deed of dedication, and all claimants herein derived their interest in the land as heirs of George Bitter, deceased, who, during his lifetime, dedicated the land for the purpose for which it was used. As such heirs, claimants must take the land subject to conditions created by the deed of dedication executed by their predecessor in title.
For the reasons cited herein, the motion of respondent to dismiss, must be allowed, and the complaint is accordingly dismissed.
