An extra session of town meeting
was held Monday afternoon at which
it was voted to expend 500 for lay
ing a concrete walk on Railroad St.,
and toextend the walk from the cross
ing in front OF DR.. Waite's to E. E.
Holmes shop and from the crossing
10 front of Maxfield's store to the
school grounds. This 500 added to
the sum which has been raised by
subscription will be sufficient, it is ex-
pected, to lay the walk on Railroad
street to the bridge and perhaps to
the depot. 1t will be two months at
least before the concrete men come
back and who knows but by that
time the town may grow sufficiently
wealthy or liberal to vote to extend
them below the bridge and also to
finish up Main street.
