on Bancroft avenue, from Middlesex Avenue to near hit. Vernon
St. , was received .from A. Cefalo and accepted. He was
notified to begin work on August 11th.
A request from the Malden and Melrose Gas Co. for
permission to open up Salem Street for the purpose of laying
a house service was refused. The street has just been repair-
ed and the Board does not think it necessary to start tearing
it up so soon. ,
The question of straightening Gould Avenue and
making a sidewalk was discussed. No releases have yet been
taken but it was the opinion of Mr. Owen that the abbutors
affected would readily give them.
There are three abbutors on Gould Street, the name
�. of which is to be changed to Chester Street, that will have
to release to the town. Two of these abbutors, Mr. Martin
Hartshorn and Mr. Benjamin Hartshorn, are willing to release
V. without expense. The other abbutor, Mrs. Margaret Ellison,
is to claim damages. She has been requested to appear at a
meeting of the Board to discuss the matter.
