~ Village President Turner called, a
special meeting for Thursday evening
of last week to pass on the applica­
tion of the Hudson River Telephone
Company for a franchise allowing
them to run a line through West Main
Street. In making their application
the telephone people agreed to install
the latest system of wire communica­
tion throughout the village.
The Westchester Lighting Company
has a line now running through the
same territory and it was the sense
of the Board that an effort be made
to have the same poles used by both
concerns if that be possible.
The applicants promised to see if
this matter could not be arranged
accordingly and their request for a
franchise went over until the next
regular meeting on June 7th.
