Road Cases Contined In Indiana County Unit Law
Attorneys T J Wilson and R S Kirkham presented the board with bond approval petitions for county road improvements in Indiana.

Improvements cover Corydon and Elizabeth and Corydon and Laconia roads, with no further action likely until ruling. John J Seipel and Thomas H Smith accompanied the attorneys as witnesses and visited relatives in Indianapolis.
