Lighting the Pawtucket State road and local notices
The Providence Journal correspondent reports that the General Assembly's lighting of the Pawtucket road segment is now in operation. Credit is given to state efforts and to B S Wilkinson for organizing lamps and installation before winter. Edward Clarke was bitten by a rabid dog. Ira Ellis reports paying for killing and burying seventeen dogs. Thirty four dogs were killed on the Massachusetts side. The cholera is not a concern. The Fall River Railroad was fined 627.07 for losing a trunk belonging to Marina Jordan from Boston to Fall River in June. The ER Road Co defense argued lack of liability. the Fall River Company argued travelers viewed it as independent of the Old Colony Railroad. Edge Wide ruled the Fall River Company responsible due to travelers’ expectations.
