Much of the road work in this hun
dred. as in the other hilly hundreds,
consisted in repairing the ravages
made the previous summer and fall
by the unusually heavy storms,
which we were unable to fully repair
before the winter season came on us.
We however scraped about ten (l0)
miles IN the southern district
and afterwards dragged them.
Seven CD new bridges were put
in. two co of plank and five
(5) of concrete, two (2) OF which
were rather large and from their To-
cation necessitated long, heavy wing
walls. They took the place Of two
old narrow dry wall culverts which
we're never of sufficient width to
carry the excess water and caused
continual damage to the roads at their
respective points. One other bridge
was a concrete arch bridge put in by
the Luten Bridge Company. Four
(4) culverts we're rebuilt, two CD Of
concrete and two (2) of plank. Six (6)
bridges and four (4) culverts we're
repaired The short piece Of road
connecting the Kennett Square road
and the Wilmington-Kenn turnpike
back of the lower Brandywine Pres
byterian church, about one thousand

to Mr. Patrick Mundy, who was at
that timu working on the -,ennett
road, and entirely rebuilt as a graded
macadam road. We had him also
grade the nil leading towards Nc
Cures and put in a four CD feet con-
crete culvert to replace an old wooden
one; lsc two ca metal culveri
pipes where we crossed the pike and
concrete ends put on them We re-
dressed with Dyer Birdsboro stone
part Of the Buck lane, and put in {
large metal pipe with concrete ends
and cut-offs to pass part of the watel
flow to the other side.

we're also resurfaced in parts. On the
Montchanin road about fifteen hundred

Birdsboro stone and one Thousand
(100O) feet of the upper end adioin
ing Adams cross roads was raised
from 12 to 10 inches with field stone
and covered with Stag and top-dressed
with cinders from Rockland Mills
These cinders. as those for Brandy
vino hundred, were given us free OF
charge through the generosity Of John
Harris, superintendent Of Rockland
Paper Mills. At the foot of Rising
Sun lane we rebuilt entirely the in.
tersection of the bridge approach with
the public road and put in cast iron
pipes and concrete cutters. There q
yet much 10 do on this road which We
hope to have done this coming season
The E. l. DUPONT Company, through
the courtesy of Mr.. Tatnall, furnished
part Of the material for the above

The roads in this hundred are in

rounded up over twelve (12) miles of

re-dug many miles of bitches. We
have built two (2) new reinforced
concrete arch bridges, eight (S) feet

large plank bridges and ten (10) cul-

PANY.

Last March when Deputy Buckley
was out OF town for one or two, days
this Italian. whose name has not
been learned by the county officials
yet, came to see Angelo and while
visiting him gave him five, or six
saws used in saving steel These
were purchased at Huntington.
Deputy Buckley. when he returned,
found the saws and instituted an in
vcstigation as to where they had
been purchased. Immediately after
delivering the saws to Angelo the
visitor vamoosed for Pennsylvania.
He never returned until to- day. AZ \,
Deputy Buckley was going down
to the Baltimore and Ohio station
when lie met the man whom he had
been looking for for several months,
The foreigner asked the officer II
Angelo was still here. Deputy Buck
Icy told him that he was, and then
told him that he would have to keep
Jim company. The officer marched
his prisoner within the stone walls
OF the prison, and now he Is safely
inside one of the strong cells.
His case will be vigorously prose-
cuted. 1t Is said that the man looks
so much like Angelo that one would
almost take them for twins.
