A Nuisance Needing Attention.

Between the junction Of the Mantua
turnpike and the Swedesboro pike in South
Woodbury., and the Delaware River rail-
road crossing on the Salem pike is piece
Of road, not over quarter Of a mile long,
within the Woodbury. city limits, that is q
disgrace to the community. Here wagons
Of all kinds sink to their hubs in going
through it; horses sink to their knees. The
sidewalks are as bad, some of them being
almost impossible. People living along
the Salem pike avoid this quagmire for
such it really is as much as possible, but
at times it is necessary to drive through it.
This piece Of property is owned by the
Swedesboro Turnpike Company. The road
needs fixing, and that soon. In all time
Of the year its condition is bad, but during
wes spells it seems to haye no bottom. For
weeks farmers have been having leaders
to help their teams through this piece Of
road, marked on the Woodbury. map as
Salem avenue, and ont Of iussice to the
public and the good Of the city, the remedy
should be quickly given. 81
