The report of the viewers Of the read petit
toned for at the March session, 1871, by Jo-
siah Wilson aud others, commencing at the
south end of the town of Brownsville and
ending in the county road leading from Anti,
och to Tusps landing, owing to the absence OF
BAIL Stewart, one of the viewers appointed,
Samael Boyd was appointed in his place; the
viewers are of opinion. that, considering the
equitable amount of damage that would be
sustained and the cost Of opening or making
the frat part of the road upon this survey, to
wit: From Brownsville to the intersection of
the present road, near Joseph Haight's resi-
dence, being at the 18th station of tue first
mile of the survey, and the detriment to the
public by the vacation OF the present road,we
deem it inadvisable to locate the part before
named; but as to the remainder of the view
and survey, in our opinion the alterations
made will greatly benefit the road II opened.
aud that the public convenience requires the
alteration to be made, we therefore report IA
vorable to the view and survey. except the
part before named. The report of the vlew-
ers in relation to- said road having this day
been publicly read (being the third reading of
the same,) and no objections being made or
damages claimed,por petition for review filed,
and the Board being of opinion that the
whole of said road as laid out and surveyed
would not be of public utility, but that so
