PENINSULA RoAD-We have defer
red sometime in speaking ofthe condi-
ton of this road. There has been some
discussion in the City Council about the
bad condition of the lower end of Zane
street, next to the bridge, and during
that discussion it was asserted that the
repairing of said street would be of no
consequence, SO long as the road on the
other side, known as the Peninsula
road, was left unrepaired.
Within the last ten days there have
been actual demonstrations that this
road is utterly impossible for vehicles
of any kind. There have been two fu-
nerals which attempted to pass up
the road, but it proved
impracticable. 1t strikes US that
this road should be attended
to and put in a condition for the pas
sage of vehicles, or else declared useless
and shut up entirely. This latter al
tentative, however, would be acting in
bad faith to citizens living on that road,
as we'll as towards those who are inter
ested in the two burying grounds stu
ated on this road. Funerals frequently
happen when the friends of the diseased
are compelled to reach one or the other
of these cemeteries. We call upon the
Supervisors of the County to do some
thing in this matter. 1t is imperlous
that some action should take place.
Two or three inhabitants have as good
a claim on the County for u protection
of their rights as larger communities.
But aside from all such claims, the fire.
quent use of this road for the purpose
of burying deceased friends, should be
sufficient to warrant prompt action.
