 Water Stops Traffic
 Due to the heavy rainfall last even- ing the highway under the kensing- ton bridge was flooded with water last evening making the road impossible for a time. The town has tried for years to prevent this condition but so far has met with little success The outlets are either not adeuuate tC carry off the increased amount of water or else the outlets become clogged with refuse For years the blame has been laid to the water tank at the depot, the selectmen claiming that the overflow from the tank was the cause. The tank at the station has been torn down and the water drawn off several days ago so that the flooding of the road could not be laid to this. The railroad has always claimed that the water tower was not to blame for the trouble and it llo" opp0etlo lilchI lIley were correct.
