We, too, should like to know if the inhaoS
tants of the western suburbs, in the neigh
borhood of the new reservoir, have no
rights which the authorities of Richmona
should regard" During the past winter the
crossings (in swo-paces particularly whe9e
the excavations for the pipes intersected the
road were almost impassable for bugg.es,
much less for wagons and carts loaded with
wood, or. coal, or manure, or farmers pro-
duce. This condition lasted for more than
a month,-We think for Two montps-Wben
a proper fllipg-in with the dirt taken out
would have obViated the difficulty this
the work of only few hours. But it seems
now to be the design OF the 8. City Engineer
to establish permanent obstruction,to ira
vel along the road, the continuation of Ash.
land street where it meets the Shields farm.
This is u county road. An emtankment
thrown up at this poins leaves a narrow pass
for one vehicle with 30 chance OF two Yehi'
cles passing each other for the space OF pro-
bably seYentS-fge yards. and in winter this
single road-bed is almost impossible for the
deep mud, there being no outlet for the We
ter from rains Tie authorities, OF Henrlcf
should take action in this matter, and IL af
one else brings it. to their nai1ee the "risei
intends to do so. -.s.ss,7 e'-5 dEsAico..
