attention has been called to an article in
your issue of January 30th, under the
above heading. The report that I die-
sented on account of the width of road is
entirely incorrecc, although I did procure
a road twenty-feet wide. I did not sign
with the other selectlnen for the lemon
tint l tvlvllk it wrong to compel the driv-
ing public l lcruss a track rmce o tween
Dillon and Rub )1) Point, when, by; trill-
iug additional expense to the Norwaik
Tramw sy comp my, it could beso arrang-
ed that it would not be necessary to cm
their tracks at all; this on the ground of
public safety. for during the summer
season the travel is aim! “l continual. My
other objection was that the document
is incomplete. Blank spaces were loft in
be filled in by the company as best suited
them. Now, is there a business man
anywhere who would sign an unfinished
agreement? I think not. and I did not
feel at liberty to sign for the town of
Darien what I would not do for myself,
i am not opposed to the trolley road. but
think in granting the privilv’ld the con-
venlcnce and protection of the people
should be the first consideration.
