sylvania Railroad Company, and
purchased .by Howard Dissinger,
Salunga, has been torn down. The
house along with the one at 211 W.
Donegal St., but which is still oc-
cupied, were the two houses, owned

trap by the council, unsanitary, and
unfit for human occupancy.
The company stated that as soon
as the one at 211 would be vacated.
it would be boarded up, and not
rented. Since it is part of a double
house, it would be impossible at the
present time to remove it, due

pair the house at 209 W. Donegal
