to inform him that there certain things in the Nay

agree. The purchase and distribution of food is
placed in The hands Of the Aims House Governors,
where it rightfully belongs.

Mr. BooLE-The gentleman wanted TO make a Bur

were several jobs in street paving which delayed

Board, at this time, had 500 men employ ed now
they have only 100. The Croton Board is opposed to
