    Edward A. Lamoine & another vs. J. J. Doyle Co. & another.
    January 29, 1959.
    
      Joseph A. McVeigh, (Bernard Helman with him,) for the defendants.
    
      Charles W. Proctor, for the plaintiffs.
   Interlocutory decree affirmed. Final decree affirmed with costs of the appeal to the plaintiffs. These are appeals from an interlocutory decree confirming the master’s report and from a final decree granting an injunction against the continuance of a nuisance and awarding damages. The plaintiffs are the owners and occupants of realty on Main Street, Holden; the defendants are the owner and the operator of an asphalt plant on adjacent property. The plant manufactures a paving compound known as “black top or “hot top.” In its operation, quantities of stone dust, a necessary ingredient of the compound, are emitted, borne by the prevailing winds, and deposited upon the plaintiffs’ premises, covering their grounds, penetrating the interior of their residences and coating their furnishings with the dust. The plaintiffs’ property had been used in part for residences for many years prior to the establishment of the asphalt plant. The record shows an unreasonable interference with the plaintiffs' use and enjoyment of their property and the final decree was correct in finding that the defendants’ conduct constituted a nuisance. Boston Ferrule Co. v. Hills, 159 Mass. 147. Stevens v. Rockport Granite Co. 216 Mass. 436. Stevens v. Dedham, 238 Mass. 487. Hakkila v. Old Colony Broken Stone & Concrete Co. 264 Mass. 447. Shea v. National Ice Cream Co. Inc. 280 Mass. 206. De Blois v. Bowers, 44 F. 2d 621. The final decree, which awarded damages up to May 1, 1957, the date of the commencement of hearings before the master upon recommittal, was proper in the absence of any demand by the plaintiffs for damages for a subsequent or further period.
