vived and the first steps have been taken
to bring the matter before the Legislature.

South Portland, served the required
legal notice OF the contemplated action
upon the city clerks or the two cities.
The bill providing for the adding OF the
Cape city to the municipality on this side
or the water will bs presented In the
early days of the session. Mr.. Hartford
stated on Saturday that the bill would
not be in this form of an enabling act

ner that Knightville would be in one OF
the wards and the settlement around the
town house in the other. The matter OF
