been removed to the NJ. V. junction anC
that point becomes Il business centre, Il pub
lie road should be opcntd from that point
through to the road leading from the +. & +
turnpike to Appc1s Church. A move vii
be made for the location of the road anC
there can he no DENYING the convenience il
will be; its location will in fact then amount
to a necessity as it will bring the people o
that section to the depot without once cross
ing the railroad tracks, whereas, without
they cross under the W. Nd aud over it ant
twice over the NJ V. tracks. This alone
without considering the difference in dis
lance, should suffice to secure the road.
