According 20 G statement in She Record
of Feb. 16, 1888, there was @ petition
presented to the county court Of Sharp at
its April term, praying his honor to YaOate
q cerlniu road and to roinDtate another
road which was already open, and has
been eyer since 1850; but the prayer Of
tho pericionors was not answered from
some cause unknown to them, and they
feel themselves somewhat agrioved, as
they do not like to work and keep up @
road that has no Junction end 10 dead.
The facts Gre just as stGSed to his honor
by your correspondent il letter which
accompanied said petition; and inasmuch
as We did not eek the county of Sharp to
view out and open up u new road, with
considerable expense attached, we sups
posed that the notice published in the
Record was enough for all who read the
she Record, and those who do not read it
are not likely TO take much interest in
public roads. Are the republicans all
