From all appearances, there will be
lots of trouble in the near future over
the Union Point crossing at the lake.
The New York, New Haven and Hart
ford Company recently closed the cross
ing, and later it was opened by an I'm
known person or persons. The rail-
road company has tried to ascertain
who it was that opened the barricade,
but have failed. They are, however,
determined to keep it closed. Here is
the original letter that Road Master
James Maher wrote William Toomey,
section boss Of the East Thompson
branch division:
William Toomey: Dear SIRE
ferring to your letter about Union
Point crossing, please have crossing
closed up again, and find out if
possible who the party was that
opened crossing. Advise when
closed again, and also the name of
the party that opened it. Yours,
j. Maher.
