AS state in last issue, the guards on
the Richmond pike were removed by
Judge Burnside. Pres dent Doty went
with his attorney to Stanford and
brought back an order from Judge
Saufey to replace them and it was
done. The RECORD asked Judge Burn
side why the guards were taken off
and he said that unless guards were
on both the Madison and Garrard
sides Of the Paint Lick bridge, it was
no use to keep them on this side, as
the bridge, which is long one, could
be fired from the Madison side and the
Garrard guards would have no right
to shoot ut them. AS to the other
guards, he said they were on duty at a
little bridge which could be replaced
for $40 or $15. He told the roads at
torney that rather than have the coun-
ty ply four dollars night for guards
for an indefinite time, he would re-
move them, and, in case the little
bridge was burned he would have it
replaced at the expense Of the county,
it being much cheaper for the county
than paying big sum for guards
The four guards are on duty now, and
costs the county IS night.
