/ ciously expended Alta subsequent Pc /
! ROD, Wells, county pledged a subsc.ip- |
!, ton of one hundred thousand dollars to |
4 the first connection for q road through |
/ that county. In view of this, parties
1 Interested have made an effort, which i
/ has proved success, for an additional
/ sum of one hundred thousand in behalf
! Of the city; the first twenty-five thous7 |
! and payable when the road is in running
order to Newport; the second install
ment upon its completion to Lynn; the
/ third when completed TO Winchester,
