rect certain sewage disposal troubles,
and adequately drain off such sewage
from the home of John koschak,
which septic tank and drain pipe was
placed on the westerly side of said
Road NO. ~. some distance away from
the home OF said John Koschak: and
Whereas. on account of snow re-
moval taking away some of the pro-
lection against severe freezing condi-
tons. the sewer pipe now installed in
connection with the above described
Improvement, freezes causing the sew

basement of John Koschaks home, so

peared before this Board, and request
