When the owner of land may wish to drain it, either by the necessary deepening or widening of a natural stream or by other means, and is unable to agree with the proprietors of adjacent lands as to the mode of draining it and the damages, he may make complaint to the superior court for the judicial district where such land is, for power to drain it across the lands of such adjoining proprietors; which complaint shall be served on them in the same manner as in the case of civil actions.
