Why, Mr. Robertson says that K cost an $442.60 to entertain the chain gang for one month, that fa $6,110.00 per year, and one can not help wondering If their work , la ebrth half that sum. « Surely Mr. Robertson must have been asleep himself to hare allowed oar township to have been charged .he entire expense of the chain gang while it was working on the line road between Sheridan and Glover ‘ownsbipe. also be should have kept iwake loog eaough to have found ->nt that Stokes Perry bridge was laid for out of trie general fond, and should not h'*"’ been ’ charged to Rieridno. I don’t think there is anv langur of Mr. Robertson ever build- ng a turnpike road anywhere, ns it tas cost us $2,?81.7$ not to work mr roads'. So if Mr." Robertson had waly done anything the good Lord tnly knows what It would have cost is. But. never ffilnd, Mr. Robertson, he Legislature has '’delivered ua from evir*~ in your case.
