expect, except as to certain places,i

ter, and especially the Bridges oh
this turn pike which» we consider
dangerous to passengers, and the
same parts of the road at nine brid
ges-as well as some of the bridges,
which need immediate ~attention to
make them safe for travel. We have
information also the flooring of
bridge at Chokee Creek is giving
way. A
With these exceptions we find the
'roads and bridges in fair condition.
It has come to our attention that
there is a part of the Dixie Highway
near Smitanville which has not been
workeq in some time and needs re
pair. Also the road ieading North
from C. O. Young’s is in bad condi
tion and as it is a part of the Mail
route, to be repaired as early as pos
sible.
We earnestly request that the
County Commissioners have this put
in good repair at once.
