Robert Wright and others, to grade and
pave side walks on Young street, from
Ninth to Tenth streets, and of Patrick b.
Flanagan, to place pump on Gray street,
near his house.
1t is due TO Mr.. Hopes to state that his

cause there is a misunderst anding in regard
to the proper time of said street, and he
thought it best to wait until the matte was
adjusted before paving and grading the
sidewalks ofthat street.
