The undersigned committee appoint
we'd by the board to investigate the
conditions existing along County
Ditch No. 20, would respectfully re-
port that we proceeded to view said
ditch and the country tributary to
said ditch and find that said ditch
had overlooked it's banks for nearly
it's entire length and has caused great
damage to property adjacent thereto,
and has destroyed several bridges
over the ditch, and in our estimation
the only logical relief therefor would
be the construction of another outlet
or relief ditch running parallel with
said County ditch No. 20 and two
miles south thereof, and having it's
outlet in Thief River, said ditch
would relieve County ditch No. 20
of all the water carried by Judicial
bitches No. 10 and 10, and in our
estimation would afford adequate re-
lief to County Ditch No. TO-.
