1892 l-2 feet The contract for this section was
given to Il. Gilmore g. Co. and the grading wa,
commenced on the 18th Sept. The line from Fair
lee to White River, % Ia miles, has been sur
veyed and presents no grade over 81 A. 10 and ne
curve ola less radius than lag feet it is estimat
ed that this section will not cost over $4,000 pc

carefully made, and preliminary examinations hav
been made to Derby line, and it is believed that O
the most difficult points the maximum grade wi
