Hon. Geo. A. Wilson was chosen
moderator of the village corporation
meeting Tuesday evening. In regard to
the matter of moving the hose house on
High Street, the assessors were instruct
ed to move il if a satisfactory location
can be secured. The preference seems
to be for moving it up the street short
distance. Seventy-five dollars was voted,
in addition to the same amount previous
ly appropriated, for the purchase OF
new hose reel. The assessors and engl-
neers were made committee TO inveSti-
gate the question of hydrant on Pine
Street, to report at an adjourned meet
ing in two weeks. 1t is understood that
the water company will lay 500
feet of main toward the hydrant with
out charge, but the corporation will
have to pay the expense of the rest of 1t.
The least expensive way of securing the
desired protection is probably by laying
pipe from Pleasant Street through the
private way east of the creamery. to
hydrant at the junction of that and Pine
Street.
