across the 1000 feet of masonry IN

The river at this point is 30 rect

idea of the amount of water going over
the weir Engineer Nourse stated that
In bulk it would be equivalent to rails

Another landing was made at the
south end of the easement, and after

for years assessed at 50 per acre will
now stand a tax valuation of $40. and
vast tracts will soon be under cultiva-
