A Move for a Town Pump in She
 Eighth Ward.

A Move for a Town Pump i'm She Eighth Warda The people who reside on upper State street are very desirous that e town pump be placed in that vicinity. It could be located on the little triangular piece of land at the junction of the five streets-State, Mechanic, Lawrence, Mill River and East. The citizens want one of the same kind as has been placed on Congress avenue. The city owns this triangular piece of land at the inter- section of these streets, and consequently the expense would be very little if one were put in. State street people believe this pump to be public necessity. This street is thoroughfare which is used by great many who go to East Rock, and the pump in this vicinity would be an accom- nodation to everybody who travels that way.
