The board met pursuant to adjournment.
All members present.
The report of the viewers heretofore ap-
pointed by this board, to view the route for
the proposed new road through the town of
Elco, ETC., is before the board for its con-
sideration, and comes also Mrs. Hartline
and objects to said new road running
through her land, claiming it will be
great damage to her, by almost running her
farm. She also presents to the board re-
monstrance signed by j. r. F. Standard
and 90 other citizens of the immediate
neighborhood against said new road run
ming through said land, and it also appear.
ing to the board that one OF said viewers
did not sign the viewers report, but did
sign SAID remonstrance. And the board
being now fully advised of, and concerning
the same, it was on motion, ordered that so
much Of said report that relates to said
land be not concurred in.
The balance of said report, viz: Com
mencing said road at the intersection of
the Cairo and Jonesboro road
and Mary Street in said town
of Elco, and running thence a distance
of about G71s rods ION the land of
Nancy j. Whitaker, until it strikes the u
lin and Cape Girardeau road near the resi-
dence Of Miles Cauble, was, on motion,
approved, and the road supervisor is hereby
instructed to open the same.
The report of viewers appointed at the
last session OF this board to view the ground
for the proposed relocation of what is
known as the Ullin road in section II,
township IA, range west, is before the
board for its consideration, but on motion,
said report was not concurred in, for the
reason, as the board is reliably informed,
said change will incur a greater expense
than the funds of the county will justify.
The report of viewers appointed to report
upon the expediency of changing portion
of the East Cape Girardeau and Ullin road
was presented, and the board being in
formed that said change will be made by
the owner of said land, and at no expense
to the county, and at the same time will be
for the public good, was on motion, ap-
proved
A petition was presented to the board
signed by G. w. Freeze and fifty other cit-
zens of Alexander county, praying for the
relocation of portion of the Ullin and
Cape Girardeau road, as follows: Com
mencing near the southeast corner of north
west quarter Of the northeast quarter of
section 20, township IA, range west,
ETC., running west about 30 rods, thence in
northwesterly direction to 4he west line
of the northwest quarter of the northeast
quarter of said section 90, thence along the
north line Of said section, until it again in
tersects the said Ulin and Cape Girardeau
road, through land owned by G. w. Freeze.
And the board, after inquiry, being salts
fed that all the requirements Of law had
been complied with, and that the public |
good and convenience require said re-loca-
ton, it was ordered that the court issue
warrant to the following named persons to
view said proposed route, and make report
thereof at the next session of this court.
viz: Geo. r. Herrick, Moses Len,z and
Leroy Thomas.
Whereas, it having come to the knowl-
edge of this board that John Bishop, road
supervisor OF district No. 7, has failed to
perform his duties as such supervisor, he is
