remark that there are quite q number of cross
streets and pieces Of streets, thickly settled,
whore tho corporation ought to compel the

obtain the gas for private use, and are willing
to bear their portion of the taxation 90 as to
secure the immediate benefits of tho public
improvement when 1t shall be completed. W.
T. Duvall has tho contract for furnishing the
posts, and George Neil tho lamps.
