Mr. Moore is to see the contractors and thus take a step to fill these large holes in the various streets. The question of taking some of the stones and gravel that is being taken up on Main Street and filling the holes and general repair of Rosemount Avé., was discussed. After a rain the water stands in these holes for days, and something ought to be done. The comâ€" mittee are going to look after this. An_ honorarium. of twentyâ€"five dolâ€" YTars was voted to Mr. Bert Pritchett, the retiring treasurer. Mr. Monkman pointed out that the bad egrner on the corner of Coulter and Gross ~Streets was the cause of sol & & several accidents during the detours, caused by the hedge which overhangs the sidewalk here and thus obstructing the view of the other street. This is a right angle corner and a narrow fifâ€" ty foot street on either angle is danâ€" gerous. ‘The council instructed Counâ€" eillor Monkman to investigate, and should this hedge overhang the town property, it must be clipped. The (mayor was. forced to leave through sickness and Reeve Gardhouse occupied the chair in his absence. It was decided that now, with the renovations | of the ‘town hall under way, some work should be done on the roof, as there are several leaks. General Hardware Reports of the work on the sewers now being constructed in town was presented to the council in excellent form by the committce. ‘The enginâ€" eer had a prepared and full detailâ€" ed report and presented it to the counâ€" cil from the committee. He showed that the work on the several streets had been _completed satisfactorily. In the detail of this report it showed that the sewers, mains and other improveâ€" ments as laid by the®town were very satisfactorily. It was pointed out that an inspector should be appointed to look after and inspect these sewers. It was shown that weeds and parts of trees had grown through the cracks in‘ many instances. Maria Street. Several objections have been taken to this name, and those behind the move have an excellent name picked out that will be presentâ€" ed at the next mecting. Dr. Haddow offered â€" one hundred and fiftyâ€"one dollars for the piece of property belonging to the town in front of his place. After the affair was gone into it was decided to accept this offer and thus this matter of havâ€" ing a properly laid sidewalk will be cleaned up. After ‘cousiderable discussion / the clerk was instructed to prepare a byâ€" law for the changing of the name of PAGE EIGHT The regular meeting of the Woeston Town Council was held on Monday night with the mayor in the chair and all members present.
