Bridge Work Progresses on Inland Railroad Stream
The bridge construction by the railroad advances slowly with piles driven and track laid up to the main stream. The boat built by the bridge company finished today and the crew moved to Eodore to monitor bridges there. Heavy rains again hinder roads and farming, while a local phone company announces service plans and rates for various party lines and residence setups at 734 Vermont Street.
