the Sullivan county railroad. n subsidiary
Of the Boston & Maine. a right to extend
It's tracks through Cornish and Planfield
to West Lebanon n H., on the east side
OF the Connecticut river
The reasons for these objections are
that 1t would be great detriment to
the business interests OF Windsor to
locate the railroad station on the Cornish
side OF the river and compel local people
to go there to do the heavy business re-
quired. The committee will cndeavor to
bring about some compromise between the
Central Vermont railway and the Boston
& Maine such as has been effected at
Brattleboro. so that a double track ma Y
be laid between Windsor and White River
Junction and thus do away with building
on the New Hampshire side.
