The Honorable Board of Public Works,
South Bend, Indiana.
Gentlemen: --
Sometime ago we were ordered to erect crossing gates at our crossing on
Division and Walnut streets. We find that it is an impossibility to erect these gates
without encroaching upon the City's right of way, and it will be necessary to place two
of our standards in between the curb line and the sidewalk on Division street. Will you,
therefore, kindly grant permission for us to erect these standards on the City's right
of way.
Yours truly,
C. B. Murphy, Agent.
