correct the supposed change of grade of r
street, frem the west side of 10th TO the west
side of 18th street, because it was believed the
proposed change would be Injurious 10 the

inches, without authority. He hoped the bill
would he postponed until the matter could he
examined INTO more fully.

sponsible.
