 WAS unaware at the IlIlle or the ln- troduction of the bill that the area covered was so great, and upon being informed that the impure ice was caused by the sew age from Albany and Troy amended it so as to cover these points There still be- | ing objections, l offered to further amend | it by having the bill cover those parts of | the river near the outlets of sewers, but, there not being quorum of the commit | tee present, nothing was done in the mat l ter
 II introduced and advocated the bill iC | tho assembly and before tho committee tC the best of my ability, and am satisfied from my inquiries that the bill If report cd from the committee would have be | como law.
