of Spring Green ana also the petition OF the
town board OF the town OF Clyde and village
of Lone Rock, both petitions praying for
county aid in the purchasing, CONSTRUCTING
and repairing and maintaining free wagon
bridges connecting the respective towns with
the respective villages at points designated
in the said petitions and across the Wiscon-
sin river, do respectfully reuort as follows:
We have given a careful examination OF all
papers ana also to all actions taken by the
different officials relating to said WORK; also
also TO a careful reasoning of the law govern
ing the compulsory levy OF a tax 10 meet an
appropriation for the purpose of paying u
certain portion of money for the purchasi &,
repairing, constructing and maintaining the
said bridges ana without any recourse 10 an
advisory committee by county authority to
aid or assist in the purchasing, construction,
repairing or maintaining OF the said free
bridges, which we believe to specifically
mean taxation without representation. We
also believe that there is a doubt as to
whether the AUDITING end or any part of the
Lone Rock and Clyde bridge is in section "a
of the town OF Clyde. We therefore refer the
two petitions without recommendation back
