There had originally been two bridges, but filling had been put iii iusteod oi one ol them, and the cost ot the bridge WilH charged up to Bentitick Inuit-r Bylaw 303. lleittinck repudiates the Pay-law and refuses to pay the amount. It “as generally believed tout the By-lzw would not hold water, and he felt time that L'vntinck Would not. reconsider the pou- tion they had taken.

Mr. Allen contended that it would not be fair to hold buck this returnable money, art the municipalities were entitled to it. No mutter what the Council of lieiitinck thought, he believed that the people felt they were morally, if not legally, bound to pay for the bridge. Mr. Bishop said if the paying back ol tiiviiey to the muuieipalititm Watt laid ovei tilt January it would look as if they were anticipating trouble, and no trottLle'wne I threatened.
