PUBLIC ROADS,
We do not find the roads in as good con-
dition as they might be, but attribute it 10
the fact crops are not yet laid by, and we
recommend that the Commissioners look
after the same and have them put in good
order.
We recommend that the Ordinary pay
$50 90 on bridge built over Sweet Water
creek, formerly known as the county line
bridge, said bridge having been moved a
shor; distance from where it formerly
stood, now being in Douglas county,
We recommend that the Ordinary con-
solidate tie Georgia Reports now on hand,
and proceed to procure such as are wanto
ing to complete full set of same, and that
he be requested to take special care of
same.
We recommend that the Ordinary confer
with the Mayor and the City Council of
Marietta in regard to the bridge across the
railroad on Powder Springs street, and
that we urge said Mayor and Council to
have said bridge built, and in case the said
Mayor and Council do not have said bridge
built, In due time, we recommend that the
Ordinary institute such proceedings in
behalf of the County as will compel said
Mayor and Council to have said bridge built
or such necessary improvements att that
place as will insure safety and convenience
to the travelling public.
We tender our thanks to his Honor,
George F. Gober, and to the Solicitor
