sentltives OF the brick companies operat-
ing across the river Were also heard.

near the Long Bridge as they had just
finished building road which cost the
county over $lS b0p. They said that if the
bridge is removed to any great distance
il would make necessary the building of
another road or the extension of the pres
cit one. either Of which would require
heavy expenditures which the county
treasury cannot afford. All were en-
phatCally opposed 10 the sO-called Syca-
