McQuire, second by Jas. Perry that the following resolution be sent to the Hon. the Minister of Public works through our member the Hon. C.F. Farwell M.P.P.

"Whereas-a bridge across the Spanish River at this point is an absolute necessity for the development of a large tract of good agricultural land, to the south of Webbwood..." This resolution asks that an engineer be sent to locate a site for the bridge.
