Tt is said that the stones were placed there instead of a fence, | a8 threats were made hy property jowners that they would tear down | any fence the rallroad put up. To do away with the present “fence” will be a gigantic task, anyone ad- |mits, who has visited the spot. | As the city closed the right of way, legal lights agree that an ap- peal may be presented within one year to the superior court. How- ever, the city officials feel confident that no appeal will be made and if that action does take place, they be- lieve the courts will approve the closing. $15.000 Spent For New Bridge Nearly $15,000 was spent this |spring by the city and the railroad Jjointly in the construction of a new |overhead bridge and the opening of a new right of way from the Bris- itol Realty Co. houses to Pond street to eliminate the menace of the old grade crossing. Instead of full co- operation in the matter as anticipat- ©d, the attorneys for the city and the rallroad found that some of the property owners of the section, who 1 been accustomed to use the |crossing, would not release their rights, asserting that the new bridge crossing was out of their way. It | was found that the new bridge made it necessary for several property owners to traverse a few hundred feet more than the old crossing but this was considered trivial in view of the many benefits of the new pass- ageway, | Crossing Menace to Children The old crossing has at least two |lives in its toll where people have been struck by the passing trains and many narrow escapes are re- corded.
