Hosea Mann Ready to Assist
in Improving Road
Across State
CERTAIN CONDITIONS
SPECIFIED BY HIM
MIR. Mann Is Former Resident of VIII
mington and Brattleboro-Offers AID
ditional 500 for Improving Raponda
Road in Wilmington.

An officer of $1,000 as a starter to-
ward a better road from Brattleboro to
Bennington has been made by Hosea
Mann of Worcester, Mass, through the
Wilmington Times, his former home
paper. Mr.. Mann formerly lived for
many years in Wilmington, later com
ing to Brattleboro. He was national
bank examiner for Vermont, afterwards
cashier of the Torrington Comm Ma
tional bank, and he is especially inter
ested in Wilmington. A section of his
letter to the Times reads as follows:
When in Wilmington last spring I
started to go over to Raponda with
my car but was advised not to attempt
1t as the road was practically impas-
sable. On a later trip after the road
had been repaired some, I made the
trip and was astonished that the town
of Wilmington had allowed the road to
become so filled with rock, mud holes,
and so narrow as to be dangerous in
passing. The fact that in spite of such
road the irresistible charms of Ra-
ponda brings sufficient people there to
! fill the cottages, speaks eloquently of
what Raponda might become if Will
mington has even ordinary country
| roads.
Il continue to have some interest vet
in Raponda, and when | was last there,
| fully determined | would do what
could another year to have a suitable
road made there As evidence of nv
good faith in this statement | will pub
| liely commit myself to the agreement
| to contribute 800 to a fund provided
either by those who have property at
! Raponda, or by the town or state, or
contributed bv-sall, to the extent of
81, 900 to be expended upon the Raponda
road from the Brattleboro road to the
| Dover road
= | viii further add that if such a
road is built at once from Bennington
to Brattleboro as is now between here
and Greenfield, either via Springfield OF
| Fitehburg and Athol, I would contrib
ute $1,000 to IT, / make this a cold
business proposition, believing that my
property in Dover and Wilmington
would be more than benefited that much
''Too many good roads have been
built in New England for people to re
main much longer satisfied with poor
roads, and when they can find plenty
of places to live where the roads are
good. they are not likely to seek out
places TO live where the roads are not
good.
Every man. woman or child in vii
mington, Dover. Marlboro, Nottingham
Halifax, Searsburg, Somerset, Reads

they have to bring about great anC
