A Public Danger.
jTO THE EDITOR. |
Sir, —I desire to draw the attention of the authorities to a practice which appears to he a common one in Pukekohe and which I consider is a most dangerous one, namely, the placing of loads of metal and material along the roads and not providing a light to warn pedestrians thereof. Last evening whilst attending at the Oddfellows' Hall 1 heard numbers of complaints by ladies about the metal along the footpath leading to the hall. Added to the inconvenience of this the lamp at the corner of the road had been allowed to go out. There isalso a heap of metal in front of a boarding-house in King Street and for the safety of persons using the thoroughfare a light of some sort should be provided there. This warning should be taken notice of before serious accidents result for which the ratepayers will be called on to pay.—Yours, etc., LEONARD H. THOMPSON. Pukekohe, May 22nd, 1917.
