four-team league contemplates two

be considerable, and these must be

The Atlanta people have agreed
to build the road from that place
to the low divide at the head OF
fuba creek--only TIVE miles from
Willow creek and seven miles from
South Boise river at the mouth of
Willow creek.
The distance from Atlanta to

route is decreased one or two miles
and consequently the distance for
hauling supplies from the railroad
to Atlanta is decreased also.
The dangerous and hard road
over Bald mountain will be entirely
averted and teams will easily travel

route.
