Mr.. EDITOR: WIN you permit me, through
the columns of your valuable paper, 10 inquire
Of our City Councils whether or not we who live
on the south side Of Maryland avenue, below
18th street, are entitled to fiagway to the oppo
site side? Kendall Chapel is within sight Of
many Of our dwellings, and yet I'm rainy and
Of attending Divine service, unless going seve-
raj squares to find q good crossing. There Is
but one between 18th and 18th streets, and that
il scarcely any better than none. think a lit
tie attention on the part Of our city officers
would be gratefully received by the residents OF
this pant Of the leland.
