Lay
Solicitor Says Council Must
AVnlk on Main Avenue.
The regular meeting of the Haw
ley borough council was held In the
council rooms on Monday evening
with the following members pres
et: C. P. Nell, J. A. Kerber, John
Conklin, Thomas Corcoran and Ern
est Kahleis. The regular business
of the council was transacted and
all bills were ordered paid with the
exception of those of the Water Com
pany, Snyder & Freethy and the
First .National Bank. These were
put over on account of the absence
of the treasurer.
It was at this meeting Monday
night that the council was informed
by their attorney, V. A. Decker, that
they would have to build the. side
walk leading from the bridge on
Main avenue in front of the proper
ty of Mrs. Alvina Daniels. The dis
pute arose over the fact that when
the bridge was raised the sidewalk
had to be torn out. Mrs. Daniels had
put in the first walk but refused to
put it in again after the bridge was
raised. Street Commissioner Rich
ard Richert has been notified to go
ahead with the work.
Ernest Kahleis sent in his resigna
tion to the council as State Commis
sioner and it was accepted. Frank
Stephenson was chosen to fill the va
cancy. The bond of the Wayne County
Street Railway company for $10,000
had been received by President Ker
ber and turned over to their attor
ney V. A. Decker, who approved it.
No action was taken on it at this
meeting but it is said that the bond
will be accepted when it is returned
properly signed by the company.
The matter of compelling proper
ty holders to lay sewer pipe along
Bishop avenue occupied considerable
attention at the meeting. It seems
as though sewage collects in the
street and there is no way for it to
be drained off. The council have
taken the matter up with the board
of health and the state commissioner.

vive to mourn the loss of their fath
er. Mr. Reafler had always been ac
tively associated with the best in
terests of Hawley and took an active

ernment. He served on the council

director for three years as well as
