<DIV align=left><FONT face="Times New Roman"> Plans have now
been completed by the Norfolk and Western officials for the construction of a
new bridge over the Scioto river adjacent to the present one just west of
Chillicothe. Blue prints are now in the hands of the chief engineers of
the road and the work will be begun as soon as right of way trouble is cleared
up.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV align=left><FONT face="Times New Roman"> The bridge will
be built at an angle of about 60 degrees from the present bridge. The
abutment on this side will be extended and the first part of the bridge will be
built on it, but the remainder of the piers will be separate, although built
close together.</FONT></DIV>
