A special town meeting was called
on Monday afternoon. August II, to
see if the town would aid in building
free bridge across the Connecticut
river between Woodsville, N. H., and
Wells River if so, how much. Quite
a lengthy discussion occurred between
several of the townsmen and a motion
of dismissal was made and carried,
40 votes against and 33 in favor. The
town was not nearly half out at the
meeting and those that were opposed
we're nearly all out. 1t is thought if
the town had been we'll canvassed and

scription if some one will go about it
in the right way.
