We further understand that the tempor- ary connection with our private sewer will be so constructed that it will not take any of the 'normal flow ih the Walnut Street sewer but will only provide for an un- 1 oad ing of that s ewer . We will be pleased to learn ft-om you wh4t procedure should be followed In making this temporary connection and who in your opinion should pay for it. Very truly, yours, C. F.
