Water for Eckfngton.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
Referring to the article In your paper of
18th instant under above heading ! am
sure you have been misinformed that "in
response to many requests from citizens
living in lexington the Commissioners
have ordered that the lexington water
supply system be connected with the Poto-
mac water main" One of the inducements
offered to parties to buy and build in this
suburb was the supply of artesian water.
This water is always clear and beautiful
and the people are delighted with IL. More
over, We have water on upper floors at all
times, while few in West lexington who
have connection with the city mains have
no water above the first floor during bust
ness hours. / am sure IL will pay the
lexington Company" whoever they are.
to continue the supply of artesian water,
even at the expense Of sinking additional
wells, for dissatisfied people are not likely
to recommend a place and try to induce
others to join them in misfortune. While
there is no written contract to supply US
with this water II was offered. as i have
said, as one of the inducements to come
here, and. IL the company have the Poto-
mac water introduced into our water pipes,
while not a breach of contract upon which
damages might be recovered, IL will be a
breach of faith and a great imposition.
