Mr, John W. Hanna, M. P. P,, gave
us news Monday morning that will be
welcomed by many in this district, He,
informed us that work will commence

bridge and it will not be very long un-

meant a trip of six miles extra for
those who had to come in by the 12th
concession.
Plans are being made to erect a new
bridge to replace this old structure
that gave way under the weight of
some heavy road equipment which was
passing over it.
