GENTLEMEN : Your Committee on Sewers

to whom was referred the petition of R. Byrne et al praying for an extension of the present sewer from the corner of Cedar and Depot St. along Depot St. to Ash St.

beg to report that a petition similar to the present one has once before been reported on adversely by this committee as being an improper course on account of the acute angle necessary to be made, and hereby recommend that said petition be rejected.

We would recommend as a substitute that a sewer be laid from the present one at the corner of Cedar and fourth Sts. along 4th to Depot and thence along Depot to Ash St.

Dated, Nov. 15th 1889

F. A. Twichell, Chairman Harry White Committee
