VILLA-STREET.
To the Emm
v : Sib. —Will yon be geod enough to in--1li! form me the reaßon' that wo residents of ' l,: ' Villastrcet, Bentley's estate, are totally Djdgleited by the Borough Council. We ,'payour rates every'year with the hope of Seeing some improvements' made in tlus direction, but as yet no road or footpath haj'been made. The roads are in precisely tbe same'-condition aB they were when. Bentley's estate was hid off some years back, and owing to the soft nature of the soil and the quantity of traffic the • roads are simply ponds and quagmires and a disgrace to any publio body having their • control. I trust that before any more rates are seized, and engulphed by uur Borough (Ciiarybdiß) that we receive some littlft'. attention, 'Other parts of. the Bbrjiiugh' returning far leas rates receive mocfcm'ore benefit, and the only explaniI cati gfit to the emgma-is that Conneiliojs either reside in or own property in «iich..localities. You will probably be ablq tcjjiveme some information relative to '&T enquiries before the next election of i!.« 'rainfe, or Benxiey'b Estate.
