haven and Bahala road from Brook
haven to Judge Furr's, 8 miles. have
also inspected the Wesson aud Smith
Ferry second class road from Copiah
county line to the Lawrence county
line, IL miles. All worked by +. b.
Smith & Son. In regard to the condi-
ton of the roads will say that all of
the above roads are in good condition
and worked according to plans and
specifications.
/ have inspected good many of the
second class roads and find that in
many instances they are entirely too
narrow; but this is nowise the fault of
the contractors as fences have been ex-
tended too far out and could not be
removed on account of the growing
crops. / also find that many of the
second class roads are in very bad con-
ditions, owing to the fact the they we're
worked but little if any by the
overseers during the last 6 months;
but the contractors have been very
diligent in their efforts to get them in
shape. The contractors have ample
stock and sufficient tools to do good
work. l have during the last month
visited all the Supervisors districts to
accommodate the people in paying
their communication money, road tax
but there are still a great many that
have not paid, and | will ask the Board
to extend the time for 80 days in
order that those who have not paid
may do so without further trouble or
cost to them. Respectfully submitted,
G. T. MONTGOMERY.
