Mr.. Carey from Com. on Highways and
Bridges, offered the following report:
10 THE Hon. BOARD OF SuPERvl-
soRs OF HOWARD County. Iowa
Your Committee on Highways and Bridges
would respectfully beg leave to report as fol-
lows:
We examined the petition of Peckham
Smith and others, and find all the owners
have given their written consent to the lay
ing of said road in accordance with Sec. 1858
of the Revised Statute of Iowa, we would
| therefore recommend it's immediate estab-
lishment. Width of Road to be 3 rods.
We have also examined petition of G.
Church and others, accompanied by Bond
| asking the appointment ola commissioner to
| view and if thought practicable locate road
| commencing at the S. E. corner of the S. E.
IA of Section rs township 90 range IL. Your
Committee would recommend the appoint
ment of F. II. Jewett such Commissioner.
Your Committee would further represent
that several Roads Of much importance to
this Caunty have been established at consid-
cradle expense to individuals and to the Coun-
ty and by wilfull neglect, or otherwise have
never been recorded by the Clerk OF the Dis
trict Court and County as required by Sec.
s55 of the Revised Statue of Iowa, Page 1856.
We have found very carefully laid aside a
plat of Sate Road. commencing at Auburn
Fayette County: and ending at the State line
in this County in Township 100 North Of
Range y West, established in this County
at the cost of about $l25, which we are in
formed, has beon paid by this County; and
also that the County Judge, Hon. J. G Upton
did order the establishment and recording Of
said Road from the point whore it intersects
Road No. 8 at the quarter post between Sec
tions Ne 16 and 81, Township 80 North OF
Range II West, to the Minnesota line in
Township 100 Range IL West as located and
established by the Commissioners appointed
! Wewould further reprt to your Hon. Body,
that said J. G.. Upton informed us that no
damages were filed against the road within
tho time allowed by law, and also that no
claim for damages appears on the County
Books. -
We would therefore recommend your Hon
Body to request said County Clerk to record
said road from said quarter post between
Sect. 1e and 81, Township 80 North of Range
IL West to the Minnesota State line, as re-
quired by law.
Wewould also in view Of our Rail Rord pros.
recommend the establishment of North and
South Roads on the best ground through our
County.
We may reasonably expect large amount
| Of travel from Southern Minnesota and the
Northern portion Of Chickasaw County.
We would call the attention OF the people OF
the Township of Albion to the necessity ofa
road from The quarter stake, between Sec
ticn No 27 and 81 Of said Town, where the
present roads angle East and West, direct
ly South, on the quarter lines to the State
Road near the Court House in Vernon
Springs Township, distance ofabout eight
miles, being as we are informed, much bet
ter route than either Of the present ones.
We would further call the attention Of the
Board to petition presented by Augustus
Beadie and others, residents Of Alton Town
ship, asking an appropriation of 100, to
aid in constructing Bridge across the big
Wapsepinicon near tho County line in said
Township. We would recommend that your
Hon. Body appropriate fifty dollars for said
Bridge, to be used by the County Supsrvis-
or Of said Town, for said purpose, according
to law. We also recommend that Mr.. A. N.
Cowan be appointed Commissioner to view,
and if though proper, relocate road run
ming East of New Oregon in answer to petit
ton Of Rider, Taft and others, all of which
We respectfully submit.
