fix the approaches to bridges.

of a temporary nature that had
been completed on the road near
Hunter. Road Supervisor p. J. Jack

instructed to examine the work
done on the road ove the Schell-
bourne pass. They will also in

the commissioners in regard to the
much desired Improvements. The
necessity for metal fling cases for
the protection of legal documents
