Survey the Towh of Brevard—Establish Permanent Corners and Grades. There is one question that should appeal to every person owning a foot or more of real estate in the town of Brevard, and that is a reliable sur vey and plat of the town. At the i)resent tinie tliere is no bejjinninj? corner that can be located, hence it is nearly impossible to cor rectly survey any one lot. The best remedy is to have the entire town surveyed and then have a beginning corner located and made of some in- ilestructible material. One of the meridian stones erected by the na tional }»overnment in the court house grounds would do. All surveys in the future wf.uUl and could be lo cated troin this beginning corner and all questions <*f boundary or lines could be settled by a survey in stead of a law-suit. And while the survey was being made the grades and levels of our streets could be made, and this es tablishing of grades and levels would stop all the present discu.-^sion about the natural flow of rain water as well as it wouM guide oropeity owners as to the proper height of their side walks and buildings. Let us have the town surveyed, a beginning cor ner established and the grades of our streets determined. Superior Court. At the last term of the supe rior court the following state cases were disposed of: Charlie Owens was sent to the state prisf)n for the term of seven years for killing George Banther some time ago.
