The property at the corner Of Four
teenth street and Franklin avenue is
again covering the sidewalk, causing
great annoyance 10 the people residing in
the neghborhood. The property is not
enclosed with bulkhead, and with every
rain the walk there is covered with mud.
As there Is considerable travel on the
walk there, the mud should be removed.
It is to be hoped that the city author
tiles will insist upon the owners placing
bulkhead around the lot, or keeping the
sidewalk clean.
