1t IS said there we're at that meeting

because they did not travel that road
and because 1t would cosf them the
princely sum of tw1 or three dollars
should the proposed levy be made.
Perhaps the greater number objected
tor the reason that they wanted the
road known as the Crockett grade i'm

would seem better that we we're GER
tain of one good road rather than the
present certainty Of two bad roads.
As the matter now stands this winter
and next will show continued lower

comparatively nothing with which to
repair it even in small way. So far
as al: this graft talk goes 1t appears
passing strange that men who pose as
