found that only the approach had been
damaged, and the reeve of Wingham at
my request had it repaired at a 'cost of
567.50. I had considerable negotiation been rendered, one half of this will have

cause, as reported in my June report, I I examined the bridge on the Lucknow
could not approve of the plan as prepar-
ed. We at last settled it amicably at a
cost of $473, without the approaches. I
requested the reeve of Howick to ar-
range with the reeve of Minto to let con-
tracts for these approaches, which he
kindly consented to do, and he informs
me that the approach t) the n. rth end
is finished at a cost of $325, and the
south one is likely to be finished shortly
at a cost of $172. As no doubt the mem-
bers of the council are aware, a very seri-
ous freshet occurred in the northern part'
of the county on August 20th list, by
which the Brussels bridge was very much
inured, and the work of the Bluevale
bridge, which was in progress, was swept
away, scattered here and there, some of
which was never recovered, as well as
cutting an immense chum in the south
approach. The Brussels bridge was re-
paired according to instructions by your
warden's committee, which I request the
lerk to call together that I might have
heir advice and authority for the work
which had been suddenly thrown upon
us. The repairs to the Brussels bridge
cost $260, which, to one who witnessed
it in its wrecked and twistoll condition,
seems a very reasonable tigurP. I had,
previous to the disaster, let a contract
for $50 to h.t.e a bent put under it,
which I withii •.,w as it was part of the
contract in ••• •,,airing. The bridge is
now apperent'y good and will stand some
years, if ne such freshet again occurs.
The cantraet for filling the approach to
the Bluevale bridge, which requirred
2200 yds to fill, *linearly as I could es-
timate, cost a little over $700. Since
this approach was finished according to
original contract, there has been very
heavy water in the river and has attack-
ed the embarkment, though well pro-
tected with atone. I was called to ex-
amine it and found it necessary to let a
small contract to put more stone at the
place, which is now being done for$2.15
per cord, and I found that a part of the
embankment is settling so that the fence
has swung out a good deal, and will no
doubt be attended to pert summer,
when it may he hoped the settling will
be over ; but as the embarkment was 17 of Perth paying one halt. According to

repaired at a cost of 525.75, whieh in-
cludes some repairs to structure. I had
the approaches to the bridge on the 8th
con. ilowich, repaired and fenced et a
cost of $30. My attention was celled to
the condition of the approaches on the
boundary between Grey end Howick,
which I examined and let • contract to

RYPORT OT L. HAMDT, ROAD COM.
I beg to submit a statement of work
done under my supervision since last
June. The Crediton bridge has been
completed, the cost of the superstructure
and abutments has •mounted to $820.
Owing to the amount of floods in the
spring the contractor for the approaches
was unable to proceed with the work as
fast as desired. It took about 1,460
yards of earth. which cost includinggfenc•
ing $235. The cost of a temporary bridge
for the accommodation of the public while
the new one was under construction,
amounted to $52, making a total of
$1,107. The iron bridge spanning the
stream at Fish creek, at Woodham, has
been completed. The old abutments
built of stone some 12 years ago placed
on a span of 17f ft. to a 14 ft. roadway,
and the new bridge being some wider,
it was unable to get it parralell with the
road. The superstructure including the
plank for covering the roadway, amount-
ed to $700. The removing of the old
superstructure, masonwork, making de-
viation road, building a temporary bridge
and making approaches to new bridge,
$140 making a total of $840, the county
$112, the county of Huron's share beii.g

the bridge between Hay and Stanley,
near Kippen, at a poet of $40. The tim-
ber in this br'dge is becoming very much
decayed, and I am of the opinion that a
new structure will have to be built Dext
year. List June i received instructions
to have a fence built along the approach-
es of the Black Creek bridge, on the
town line between Hay and Stephen,and
had it built at a cost of $18. and repair-

the Exeter bridge tightened and the
fences of the approaches repaired, which
