a good lawful fence on the division line between the right-of-way and the lands
adjoining the right-of-way for one-half (1/2) the length of the line, and the other
party has not constructed the fence on the line for half the length, nor has paid a
sum sufficient to construct the fence, or any sum by agreement in lieu of such a
sum, the party who has constructed the fence shall, in writing, notify the party in
default of the length of the division line between them, and that the party serving
the notice has constructed a good lawful fence on the division line for one-half (1/2)
the length.
