Public Road Proposals and Trust Reform Urged in London
In a letter to Toi the Author of the Public Lepper the writer lauds George Cooke and Sir William Blanchamp ProGor for public service and supports widening Islington and New Road routes. He urges fewer trustees, lower tolls, and better road planning, praising a man who saved Islington Trust funds and proposing a straight line from Goswell Street to the New Road. He also calls for a concise abridgement of city laws and notes a recent cattle control act for market mornings.
