bridges in this county, and filled writ
ten report, which is as follows:
To the Fiscal Court of Breckenridge
County: We, the undersigned, after
thorough inspection of the bridges of
Breckenridge county, would make the
following report: The Rosetta bridge
is in bad condition on account of main
stills being decayed at west end, and will
have to be repaired or rebuilt in the
next two or three years.
Dents bridge is in bad condition on
account of main stills being badly de-
cayed at west end, and should be re-
paired or rebuilt as soon as possible.
This bridge is in worse condition than
any bridge in the county except Tar
Fork; could be made to last a few years
by putting in bent under west end.
Clifton Mills bridge needs two bents
put under it to be made perfectly safe;
bottom Gordon, north was broken some
time since and repaired, but not sufici-
emily to be perfectly safe.
Lodiburg bridge needs Strengthening
and approaches repaired, before it can
be of use to the public.
Yellow Bank iron bridge needs new
hub boards.
Skillman's bridge in corporate limits
of Cloverport needs new roof.

nections and brace rod frightened.

Burton, deceased, for the recovery of
six per cent penalty on taxes so collect
ed by the said Pate and Burton as
Sheriffs of the county of Breckenridge,
State of Kentucky, and which penalty
was so held by said sheriffs and not paid
over to the proper authorities as so

the sheriff's books and stubs thereof
which would show the amounts so col
