Judge Patterson delivered (hu opinion of
the court this morning in the case stated filed
last year te ascertain who Is liable for the
rebuilding of Blnkley's bridge, destroyed by
llre en Nev ember 2T, IS8JL, Jacob It. aiek,
II. P. Krick, David Kllliuger, Jeseph Stark,
Geerge W. Slyer and Heward Pcarsel, who
have occasion te use the New Helland turn
pike daily anil who are gieatly Inconve
nienced by reason of Blnkley's bridge net
being rebuilt, apjiear en the iceerd In this
proceeding as the plaiutifrs aud the county
of LuiCAster av) thu defendants. Tlie opinion
gives hi detail the history of the bridge, stat
ing that it was built by Christian Blnkley,
and hi 1707 or 17113 was sold te Mat tin Myers-,
Jacob Gryder, et al. hi trust for the publleuse
and benefit of the county of Lancaster, te be
u riee brldge forever, for the Inhabitants te
passjie-passand travel en, ever, across, along
and upon. The brldge was destroyed by
the flood in 1S7, and was rebuilt "by the
county of Lincasler, the New Helland turn
pike company paying one-third of the cost
thereof. In 1877 the county contracted with
James C. Carpenter te make certain icpairs
te said bridge. The act of May ft, 1870, pro
vides that It shall be the duty of the county
commissioners of ihe several counties of the
commonwealth tu rebuild and reconstruct all
bridges heretofore built, or that may be erect
eil by the county I hat may be destroyed by
Heeds, fieshets, Re, fire, or ether casualty.
This hiidgebas Isjcn lieated as a county
bridge lei ever eighty years aud is entered
en Iho county records as a county bridge,
and is knew 11 as the bridge at the paper mill.
Tb county commissioners have also caused
te I placed 11)1011 and against the said bridge
printed or painted notices te tiavellcis, rcgu
luting fast (hiving.
Tlie judge says theie Is no fen e in the ar
gument et defendants that the bridge Is en
tlioreutoor liueef the New Helland turn-
Clke, and thcrerere the turnpll.e company is
eund te rebuild tlie bridge.
Thu fact that the commissioners induced
thu said turnpike company te pay one-third
el Uiocestsol rebuilding the bililge in 1807
deci net take awav tlie county character of
the bridge nor relieve the commissioners
fiem the statutory duties inclesed en them.
Bridges ever streams net at all times rorda rerda
ble, ate certainly a great public interest,
atlecting the whole community and are Hi
disvcusible te its prosperity.
