Said pipe lines have been conet runted In part upon dedicated public streets, alleys, and public utility casements, but a substantial portion thereof have been constructed upon private property. Said *mter Company, or ita predecessors and successors, have obtained easements upon some of said private property for said pipe lines, but can give no assurance in all such cases that said Water Company, and it* predecessors or successors, obtained said easements from all owners, or persons interested, and then of record, la some case# the Water Company has been unable to find any record of having obtained any easements at alt. Accordingly, where said distribution lines are laid upon private property, the District, as the owner of said lines, may In many cases be subject to actions or claim* by the owner# of said private property to enjoin the maintenance and operation of said distribution lines or for damages. The parties agree that it is impractical or extremely difficult to determine liability which the District may incur by way of judgments lor damages and for court costs and the expense of defending or settling said actions or claims. The First Parties desire to indemnify the District against such liability, as hereinafter provided.
