1891, was to the effect that putting
in the cylinder iron piers. extra con
crete, tearing down of the old pier,
and cost and construction had brought
the total cost of the bridge to $S4, ,40S. .9s
Trouble began at once. In August of
1891 a bill was presented to Polk eoun
~ for half of the repairs. In Novem-
Der of the same yea2 viewers were ap-
pointed TO estimate cost of additional
repairs. In July of 1892, the county
court accepted bid of $2095 to re.
build the west approach. In July of
1905 the county commissioners of the
two counties met to consider the con
dition of the bridge, and bids were ask.
ed for re-planking.

In June of 1907 the bridge was in
speeted again. In May of 1912 an en-.

as 10 its safety and in August Of 1914
the state highway commission under II

Portland, inspected, and from all came
the verdict that the second bridge had
cutlived its usefulness.

That the Wittenberg- King company

the location which has been selected.
Deeds for other lots, which have been

think the price asked for two remain

the price which was paid for Other
lots. 1t is declared upon reliable au.
