DIRT NOT Flying
FAST enough ON
CONCORD WORK
County Thinks B. & 0.
Should Have More Than
Holes at the Crossing
Will URGE COMPANY
TO Get BUSY At Once

The Levy Court, in session this
morning, took exception to what the
members regarded as laxity in the
matter of the elimination of the j.
and o. Railroad grade crossing at
Concord Station, and the erection Of a
bridge at that point
President Hollingsworth brought
the subject to the attention of the
court by stating that the railroad
company about two weeks ago made
several holes on the scene of the
crossing, but had done nothing
further with the work. The agree
ment between the Levy Court and the
railroad company, entered into on
February Is. 1913, was obtained and
Clerk Hopkins read the section
which provides that the company
should proceed with the work within
80 days after satisfactory arrange
ments had been made relative to con-
demnation proceedings. The agree
ment did not stipulate, however, when
the work should be finished, and Mr
/ Fouracre remarked that this omission
was the weak point in the agree
ment.
: Mr.. Smith remarked that the rail
road company would consider the dig
/ ding OF the holes in compliance witt
( the section of the agreement callinl
for the work to begin within 80 day
after settlement Of the condemnation

form the railroad company that tn
