Business of County Com
missiOners.

County Commissioner Webber was in
town Saturday, on his way home from
Starks, where he had been with the
other commissioners to attend a meeting
of committee that had been appointed
by the supreme court on the appealed
sioners.
The commissioners had also been to
Smithfield to re-survey the road from
Smithtield village to Belgrade, as far as
the south line of the town. 1t appears
the record of the road was lost, or there
had been no record, and it is necessary
for the county commissioners to define
the limits, otherwise the town has no
authority, except over the narrow strip
actually used. and could not even cut
bushes beside the travelled way inside
the four rods limit. This WAS more of
job than the commissioners expected and
they had to adjourn until August to
finish the work.
The commissioners also gave a hear
ing to the petitioners for alteration of a
proposed road in Norridgewock near the
Starks line. The prayer of the petition
ers was granted in part but the larger
part of this road will be built as laid out
in 1895.
The commissioners were in Brighton,
Tuesday, and 20 to Norridgewock, Fri
day, the Oh, to Arson and Starks

22d. They will also attend the hearing
OF the committee on the appeal from the
commissioners on the road petitioned
for from Lexington To Kingfield, the
27th. This makes up pretty busy
month for the commissioners.
