The SunfSh Bridge.

rs g. o. g.
EDITOR SpIRIT:-Your article of the
18th, as to a bridge across Sun6sh creek,
is not understood so far as the amount
mentioned is concerned.
4 Some months since the Commission
fers had several articles drawn up, which
were sent to different parts of the Coun-
ty, where bridges were supposed to be
needed, with the express understanding
that they would furnish as much as would
be obtained by subscription for that pur-
pose. At Clarington the necessity was
seen of making an effort to meet them
half way in the construction of bridge
near the mouth of the creek The SUBJ
scriptioEs wereto be returned to the Com.
missioners by the goth of last month.
The one from Darlington was accordingly
returned by that time, but nothing done,
only that it was postponed until the first
Monday in June. at which time the sub.
scription was again presented, and not.
withstand:ng there was not another SUBJ
scription paper returned. and it being only
the acceptance of proposition on the
part of the subscribers, yet their repre-
sentatives were treated as petitioners, and
met pretty strong opposition by one of
the Commissioners and an outsider. -
Nevertheless, after something like q
days importantly on the part of the rep
resentatives, the Commissioners then and
there agreed to furnish FIVE hundred dol.
lars ct the commencement of the job, pro-
vided the same amount on the subscrip-
tionF was paid; Eve hundred dollars when
thejob was half completed, with heabove
onderstandiug;eand one-half of the bal
ance of the cost of constructing when
done, with the same proviso. The Com
missieners to put the same under con-
tract as soon as practicable. Ha
% We now say if the first FIVE hundred
dollars is wanted next week it can be had,
and with what we have subscribed, that
which we have promised from our Woods
field friends and Others, without counting
anything on o few of our own citizens,
who are the prominent, business men of
the place, and who will each of them be
more benefited than any other three Or
fourlImen in community, and have not as
yet subscribed one cent, the balance viii
be forthcoming at the proper time.
