Residents Of West Twenty-third

Of the condition OF the street. The
bed of the street is higher than the

passes along the street it splashes
black slush and water from the holes
in the street There are no cutters
to carry off the surface drainage and
the concrete pavements are covered
with black mud. Women and children
who desire to go TO McCabe Church,
