J.H. GILLIS, P.J.
This action involves dispute over two separate parcels of property. In the first dispute the trial court properly held that there was a mutual mistake between the vendors and vendees in which the description set forth in the deed failed to describe the entire parcel of land which vendors had agreed to sell and the vendees had agreed to purchase.
"Reformation [is] proper so as to carry out the express actual intent of the parties where the evidence is clear that both parties had reached an agreement and, as a result of a mutual mistake, * * * the instrument did not express the true intent of the parties." Blake v. Fuller (1936), 274 Mich. 534, 538.
The second dispute involves a line fence which had existed as a boundary for approximately 50 years but which was substantially obliterated by breakage and brush. The parties to this action, desiring to plat adjacent subdivisions, employed the same surveyor who established the true line 10 feet south of the line fence. Several years after plaintiff had platted his property and buildings were erected in the subdivision on the lots abutting the line fixed by the surveyor, defendants questioned the boundary and joined in this action.
All the elements of an equitable estoppel are present. See Cleveland-Cliffs Iron Co. v. Gauthier (1906), 143 Mich. 296.
The trial court is affirmed. Costs to appellee.
