AN OBSTACLF.
To the Editor. Sin, —I have heard a story of the early days of Dunedin concerning a certain doctor who had a wooden leg, and who, when attempting to cross, stuck fast in the mud in the centre of Princes street, near the Cutting, and had to be unscrewed before he could be extric ited. The same fate might befal the possessor of a similar appendage at present trying to pass along a portion of Elm row, near the top, and opposite a house which is in course of erection there. The taking across the pathway of the material required in the erection has rendered it almost impassable. A few planks laid along the pathway would add materially to the comfort of those requiring to go up and down the street. In the business parts of the City this is always done. Hoping the owner of the house will act on this suggestion, I am, &c., Macadam. Elm row, August
