a considerable quantity of crushed road

At a distance of about IL miles from
Mahukona, the Road Board, on account
of the paucity OF funds at their disposal,
ordered the new line of road to be aban-

grades are very bad. and the construc-
ton of the road with grades, as project
ed ought to be carried out. All the

be given for the expenditure of $i,O00-ap-
propriated for this road.
