 The sewer and sidewalk commit tee of the Plainville Chamber of Commerce. under the chairmanship of F. l.. Benzon, which has been quietly looking into the matter of the possibility of a sewer in this town, has met with an unexpected setback in it's investigation and fur ther progress has been brought to a standstill.
 | In it's investigation the committee | has been going over the records of ! the various meetings of the old 1 Plainville sewer district. and it ap- 1 pears that certain profile maps of the town made in connection with a | proposed sewer 15 years ago have i been mislaid.
 Just where the maps are at the y . , The chamber is of the opinion that they arc in the hands of some one, possibly a relative of (. deceased member of the old sewer committee, who does not know the value of the maps or where to dispose of them if he knows he has them.
 |, The maps were first made in 1912 when the sewer proposition was placed before the voters of the town. The issue was defeated at that time. In 1922 the matter was revived again and an additional mar made. Now that the chamber is ready to work on the proposition, its efforts have been handicapped by the disappearance of the valuable maps.
 According to Mr. Bouzon, tho maps are Of the utmost value 10 the town of Plainvillc, and considerable time and expense will be saved ii they are found and turned over tC the chamber committee. An idea ot their importance can be seen from
 
 grades and protiles O. every street in the town and. unless they arc found, it will he necessary to make an entire new survey of the streets
 When last seen, the maps were rolled up in a bundle from { to $ inches in diameter. The maps arc 90 inches long. It is hoped by the sidewalk committee that this infor-
 nation, given to the people of the town, will bring forth the much de,
 sired maps. Any assistance in bring.
 ing the maps to light again will h'
 greatly appreciated by the commit tee, as it will prove great benef 10 the town and will bring 10 an enc
 the worry and investigation of tn sidewalk committee. The COmmitte' is very anxious to continue it's W0ri toward sewer in Plainvillc, and tn, assistance of the maps is needed. : 5lh Wedding Anniversary Ir. and Mrs. A. Fl. Dresser 0 5 West Main street are observing tn
