AFFAIRS ABOUT TOWN.
Hon II. S. Mygatt favors us with the
following note by request: The Gazette
stated, last week, that the Town
bridge was built in 1871 or 1872. Mr.
Bolles tells me now that he has been
corrected and informed that it was in
1873, and that will so state, this week.
know positively. 1t was built by the
former toll bridge company, not by
the town, .and haven't found any one
who can tell the name of the builder.
l do not think, though, that it is ma
terial, as it was not specially note
worthy or difficult piece Of work. Re-
quested to give his opinion as to which
he favored, an iron or wooden bridge,
Mr. Mygatt said:. AS to which might
favor, a wooden or iron bridge, think
one should be built with one span and
without center pier, which would
probably necessitate an iron one. AS
new abutments have to be built any
way, I think the omission of a center
pier will Offset considerable portion
of the difference between an iron and
wooden one. or course some consider
alton may be advanced to change my
opinion, but I doubt it. An engineer
talked to the Commercial club on
the subject, Wednesday night. When
he was here last week he said an iron
bridge ought to be built at from $12, 900
to $15, 900. To BEE reporter Hon
Isaac Bristol said he favored building
an iron bridge. G. H. Booth said he
would most emphatically favor an iron
bridge. James Marsh, of the firm of
Ackley, Hatch & Marsh, said he "a
vored building an iron structure. w.
G. Barton said he believed an iron
structure would be the more econom-
ical in the end. J. D. Clark said that
an iron bridge ought to replace the
wooden structure washed away.
Wednesday evening, March 16, about
60 Of the citizens of New Milford met
at the Commercial Club rooms, Post
office building, to discuss and take
such action as the meeting might
think best relative to building new
town bridge. Hon Nicholas Staub was
chosen chairman, P. M. Cassidy secre-
tarY. H. S. Mygatt introduced p: H..
Norton, consulting engineer OF Pitts
field, Mass. who exhibited several Illus
showing temporary bridges. Mr. Nor
ton stated that the superstructure for
| iron bridge, 20 feet wide, $50 feet long,
would cost from Sc, 600 to S12, 900. The
cost of abutments would depend on
local conditions and whether stone or
concrete was used, but gave rough
estimate of IS, 900. He also stated that
a temporary bridge to maintain traffic
could be constructed at once and the
same could be used in constructing
iron bridge with little cost to the town,
He estimated it would take three
months to complete same and did not
think the traffic would be stopped more
than 10 days, while the main stringers
we're being laid on the temporary
bridge. A vote of thanks was extend
ed to Mr. Norton for his suggestions
and the courteous manner in which he
answered the questions of the severa
citizens. 1t was then moved that {
committee, consisting of Hon Nicholas
Staub, w. G. Barton, c. M. Beach, J
LIE Roy Buck, G. M. Marsh, be appoint
ed to consult Mr. Norton and prepare
plans and estimate cost of, to submit
to town meeting called for that pur
pose, March 26.
