The following report of the Committe Oh
roads and .leNees was received.
ThibOdaux, l.afourche, La.
To the Police jury Of Lafnurche:
Gentlemen Your committee on Public
Roads aud | evees RESPECTFULLY report, on the
matters referred to them dt your session OF
yesterday. as follows:
On petition marked A; Issuing from resi-
dents and land owners of the Choupic and
Chacbay settlements praying for the with
Of the gates placed BY Messrs Geo.
T.. Taylor & Co.. and Caillouet & SONS across
the public road leading from Bayou La
fourche to said settlements. Your committee
is fully impressed with the Importance of the
question at issue and consider that the inter
est of all can best be subserved by . general
discussion of the matter and hence refer tho
petition to the Jury tor final action.
On petition marked b. numerously signed
by citizens of the 8th and 9Th wards of the
Parish, calling the attention of the Jury to
the cave in the Penouille levee just above the
locks at Lockport. your committee after a
careful consideration of the prayer cannot
see the possibility OF the Parish undertak ing
the protection OF said Levee owing to the es-
tablishment Of . precedent that could not be
maintained without bankruptcy to the Par
ish unless through the levying Of a tax on
property throughout the Parish that would
be tantamOunt to confiscation. Therefore,
your committee recommend the refusal of the
pra yer Of saidtpetition, not. however, without
expressing the regrets of this Jury and the
q assurance to the petitioners that all moral
aud legal support in this matter within the
means Of this jury will be freely aud heartily
accorded to them.
