That. the original distribution plpca

that perhaps botwcen fifty and sixty

We found the Grupo dam. in tlic
opinion of Mr. Wood and the chain»
ecrs whom \vc cniploycd. \vcnkcncd
by the water gutting into the masonry
work and the frosts loosening thc cc-
mcnt, allowing it to wash out. which
caused the dam to icak and at the.
some time rcduded Its strength so
that. in the opinion of the engineors,
it required strengthening. This could
be. done. ,
First. by inking down and rebuild-
Ing It, which would be expensive.
Second, by buttresses, which would
be subject to the some climatic in—
fluence as the dam has been regarding
the elfect. of frost.
Third. by‘ltlling in on the lower
side of the dam. leaving the prosent.
masonry work practically a core for
a dam. ,
It would then be capable of stand-
ing almost. any strain and all that it
would be practical to put upon It;
We found a report of n committoc.
made In 1892 recommending the con-
struction of it new rcscrvolr ut oncc
at an, expenditure estimated at about
$65000; ‘ . ,
We found that since that: time tho
receipts from water rentals have 'all
bccn used up and something over $3.-
000 more. by reason of the expendi-
‘i‘from a. faucet in town. and sent for
*iqxatnination. The report. spcults blah-l
