the expense of repairing a road because
he considers it quite good enough for him.
self.
In the Isle of Ely there is little parish
which has been somewhat contemptuous-
ly described as "a portion of land, with
three or four houses and perhaps twelve
inhabitants" This place has no roads at
ALL and is, consequently, put to an ex-
pense in keeping them in repair. AS a mat
ter of fact, there are no expenses of any
kind and no rates.
One of the most remarkable villages In
this country is Kempton, near Bedford,
which is seven miles long and extremely
struggling. To walk from one end of the
village to the other occupies two hours.
Sometimes whole villages will practically
disappear. A little Shropshire village has
gradually sunk until now It Is almost out
OF sight. 1t is built on a disused coal pit
and the sinking goes on steadily every
year. Now and then a lettering house is
propped up to keep 1t standing, but. In
spite of all precautions, buildings are con-
stantly falling to the ground and in
course of time doubtless nothing will be
left but a few bricks to mark the spot
where a village once stood.
