selves to secure the right-of-way

pay him S175.00 and he does the
fencing. The people not only
pay Mr.. Everman, but they paid
T. B. Ware about $250.O0; $40
to Mrs. T. A. Ogden and paid
Mrs. Mastin in cash and fenc-
ing, an amount that would make
considerable more than $500 in
all. This is the way to prove
the people want a road.
