Gillam Gravel Road Accepted.

Benjamin Faris was in from Gillam township Tuesday, on which occasion the commissioners finally accepted the Gillam gravel road, which has been in course of construction for the past four years. Mr. Faris has been acting as superintendent of the road for several months, having succeeded A. W. Prevo, the former superintendent who went to Idaho for the benefit of his wife’s health. The road is 13 miles long, in three sections, as follows: The Vernon road of 4 miles, the Independence road of 7 miles and the Gillam road 2 miles in length. The contract was taken for the construction of the road by Glidewell & Son, of Greencastle, and was taken too low. which accounts for the length of time they employed in completing it The contractors have been building road down near Greencastle, the elder Glidewell says, to make money to build the road in Gillam township. The completed and accepted road la a good one, and worth all it cost
