The only case, in this court, of pub
lie interest was the prosecution
against the County Commissioners for
not repairing approaches to public
Bridge in S.linsgrove. The facts are:
some years ago u bridge was erected
over the Pennscreek in Selinsgrove OF
but a single span, and as soon ms the
water rises ia the creek IL flows around
the abutment OF the bridge, on the
canal side, and washes away the up
proach-there should have been an
other span of ut least 100 feet and the
matter would have never appeared in
court. but It has been returned by the
Borough constable every term of
court for several ysArs--the defen
dants were found guilty-but the
minutes Of the court would indicate
that the ease will not end here.
