+, thorough and efficient drainage Of she city
or rather. what progress has been made in
carrying QUE an etectual system Of drain
| age and construction Of an efficient system

In response thereto, the undersigned. I'm.
| der commission of Ex-Governor ). Madison
Wells, as special commissioner of Louisiana
levees, and as special engineer thereof, in
1867. designed and devised . plan and
specifications, with surveys and protiles for

Said plan and specifications have been

Of levee protection and city drainage the

city limits will be rapidly extended third,
ehe population of the city greatly aug
mented fourth, the revenues of the city

and protection levees to secure it against
