Cockeysville, 9Th District.-There are
seven men and two mules and carts engaged
in the making of roadway at the Cockey
homestead as an outlet for driving to take the
place of the crossing north of the station,
which is q dangerous point. The change will
be of advantage as well as safe. One unfOrtu
nate mule had fall that was a disadvantage
to him in that he let the cart carry him over a
twelve-foot embankment. Apparently he was
not injured. 1t is the day for improvements
and changes and we hope we will in the near

is given us it should be 100 feet at least to the
northeast so as to allow more carriage room.
