mittee recommended in lieu thereof that
a Waterman be stationed at the crossing
during the summer months.
The second branch was undecided
what to do with the committees report.
A motion was entertained which would
refer the report back to the committee
with instructions to draw up an ordi-

companies to erect the gatea There was
an amendment offered later to lay the
committees report on the table.

votes on the motion, and decided that
both were lost. Then the whole matter
was gone over in another form. Mr..
Weisgerber moved that the ordinance
committee's report be received. Mr..
