When the asphalt pavement was laid on the
latter street, it broughtits grade above that
of Alabama street. and there has been ever
since a pool of water standing at that
point, which is nearly Q square in length.
About q year ago the Board of Health COM
planned of the condition of the street to
the board of works. but the latter body

that the cases of sickness are due to no
other cause than that this stagnant water
has been allowed to lie there.
