The Free Bridge PROBABLY 10 be CloSed.-
At q meeting OF the James-Riyer Bridge
Commissioners several days ago Discus
sion arose relative to the closing OF the Free
bridge during high water. The question
was finally referred to the Committee 90
Superintendence Of Repairs, with authority
to act in the premises. This question arose
on account OF the reported UNSAFE condition
Of the bridge. At the request OF the Com
missionerS, City-Engineer Cutshlw, OF k!cE-
mond, examined the bridge and reported
three. of the piers to be defective, and
that they would be unsafe during
high water, az they were undermined.
One Of these piers is situated near the Man.
chester dam, and the others are the second
and third ones from the Richmond termi-
nus. II the river is a foot higher to-day
than it was last night the committee, having
been entrusted with the authority, intend
to close the bridge to both vehicles and per
sons. Last night the river was only four
feet higher than the ordinary high water,
and was 2t stand.
The commissioners, at every meeting Tor
some time past, have requested the Coun-
ellis OF Richmond and Manchester TO appro-
pirate funds towards the maintenance OF
the bridge; bat as yet nothing has been
done to this end by either OF the cities. The
money that was appropriated some time
ago was used for repairing the woodwork.
AS matters now stand, the commissioners
are compelled, in the Interest OF humanity,
TO act as above stated.
