HARRrsBuRe, Feb. 8, 1856


II. B. MA.sER, Esq.-Dear Sir Il arrived
here OH the 9th inst and yesterday appeared
before The Canal Commissioners for the pur-
pose of urging them TO secnre the Bank of
the River at Sunbury, from the Norhumber-
land Bridge 10 the Shamokin Dam, by Rip
Rapping the same. The Canal Commission
ers treated the application with respectful at
ienion, and seem 10 be favorably disposed.
They are authorised 10 perform this improve
ment by an act passed in the Session of 1912,
see pamphlet laws of that year, page 434,I
IN the year 1928, the State built the Shamo-
kin Dam, which by subsequent additions
raised the water in the Susquehanna about
nine feet Hence, after this was done, a
very moderate fresh wonld and did raise tho
water SO much at the Borough Of Sunbury, at
a certain low place there. and al all the low
grounds above the town, that it would and
did sweep through those grounds carrying
off crops and fences, and in some cases injur-
ing buildings. Two Of those low places have
been secured, at an expense of about $1,000,
and the third and last, is also about TO be Sc
cured, the citizens and others having sub
scribed about $500 for that purposej which
will be very nearly sufficient 10 do it. Now
all we ask of the State, is 10 secure the work
we have done, and may do at our private ex-
pense, as well as the other part of the Bank,
by Rip.Rapping, or paving it with stone.--
This may cost s300o which is not go much
by $500 as the citizens have already given.
II an individual or company had done US this
damage, here they would have been held
clearly liable to make it good. |, cannot,
and surely IL ought not 10 be, lha, the State
VIII Cypress any OF its citizens, and refuse to
grant them any redress. The matter is now
in the hands Of a Committee of the House
that OF internal improvement before whom
| will appear on Monday to explain and urge
our claim, After which I shall leave it in
the hands of our Representative, John B.
Packer, Esq, where it will be perfectly safe.
You will be pleased TO hear, tha, the Viii.
Transport and Elmira Rail Road will now be
! completed almost to certainty. The con.
tract is given TO a Mr. Gonder, now here. A

means, and great energy and is 10 be done
