AS result af the special town
meeting held Monday forenoon at 8
o'clock in Pclry's hall, Randolph,
there will be no new sewer construct
cd between Closson and School
streets. this year. Tho vote WAS
more than two to one against the
proposition, and most of the prcdic-
tons made previous to the meeting
pointed to that result Attorney
Ernest l.. Goodspeed appeared for the
proponents and made an able argu-
ment.
Chairman c. e. Clark of the board
of sclcctmen spoke against the plan
He could not see the advisabiity of
constructing the sewer. as he. said
1t would accommodate but few and
he believed that the cost would be at
least twice the figure 5000 which
Attorney GoodSpced set.
He further called attention to the
fact that the town had lost about
$4,000 taxable property during the
past year and called up the ever
present 'bogic' of the bridge. stat
ing that Randolph would probably
nave to stand about $4,000 expense in
the reconstruction of one of the
bridge piers. The tax rate of Ram
