opened, gradually pulling the great
unwieldy craft out into free space.
Thanks to the light breeze and the

was towed to a point about 800 yards

The state is repairing the Owings-

public is urged by the engineer in

All automobile owners are also re-
quested to drive upon fresh work
slowly, so as not to injure it before it
has an opportunity to set and be-
come hard and suitable for travel.
