| Whereas. il has come to the knowl
edge of this Levy Court that bridge
Is in progress OF erection over The
Brundywlne creek which is expected tC
be turned over to the county, and t,
become charge upon said county
and,
Whereas, 1t is important that M
such burden should be- SIS med by tht
county unless IL is req | by law ol
peratively demanded b public In
tercst. Therefore,
Resolved That a committee Of five
he appointed, OF which the chairman
shall be one, to examine into the mat
ter and confer with the attorney o
the Levy Court upon the subject ant
that such COMMITTEES shall report tc
tho Levy Court for its further action
Mr.. Grubb thought it would be 70
the whole court to fix upon day TO
| xtiElit ttl,r Tim hPtI in n hnIN md hon
the claims Of all 5ide5 as to the neces
sity for the bridge.
Mr. Hickman agreed with Mr.. Grub
md sud that quite Il humber OF peC
Pile had spoken to him in reference I
the matter, and tho marsh compan,
was particularly anxious to have
public hearing.
Mr.. Sutton, said too, 1t would b,
better for all the members to view tn
bridge and then they could act intclli
gently on the matter. lie had see
what was supposed to he a bridge. bu
he did not think II was what the peOpl
desired.
Mr.. Jolls. said the resolution onl
implied calling upon the attorney o
the Levy Court, to get his opinion q
to the rlglA OF the county to actep
the bridge, simply because it Is con
pulsory. The law sGys the Levy Coui
shall receive the bridge, but docs he
suy how II shall receive IL.
President Buckingham said tina
most OF the members had alread
viewed the bridge.
Mr.. iIutchi5on thought that 1t wa
the better plan to first get the opinio
of the attorney for the court, and a
forwards view the bridge. II th
court Is compelled to accept an
bridge than is put upon 1t by til
legislature, then that settles tn
matter.
The resolution was adopted an
Chairman Buckingham appointed /,
the other members OF the committe
Messrs. Hutchison, Clark. Sutton an
Killgore.
Alessrs. Hickman and Grub wei
suggested as members OF the con
mittee, but asked to 10 excused bl
cause the people OF Brandywine an
Wilmington hundreds are tho most il
terested and they represent thot
people.
Job II. Jackson, had several of tn
members of the court down to see IL
bridge yesterday.
