<br /> facilities in either one of the houses or outside of the houses, and it would be too
<br /> ~xpensive for this lady to connect up with the sewer as it is now located. Ci~y
<br /> Engineer Clubb stated it would cost in the neighborhood of $60.00 just to cross
<br /> fl.9th Street. Councilman Reid stated that this lady is sick at the present time and
<br /> Fhat he was not able to talk with her, but she is practically without funds and could
<br /> not afford this heavy expense. He suggested that one of the three outside toilets
<br /> I ~ight be installed for each of the two houses. There was considerable discussion by
<br /> &ifferent members of the Council about whether it was the proper thing to allow
<br /> this installation. In order to get the rootter before the Council, Councilman
<br /> Reid made a motion that the installation of these toilets be allowed and that the
<br /> Recorder be instructed to notify Miss Lowry that th~ council had order~d these
<br /> lnstalled. The motion was seconded by Councilman Farrington. At thi~ time Mr~
<br /> R. G. Miller, who was present in the Council C~mbers, asked that actlon on.thls
<br /> !atter be deferred until the next Council meetlng. He stated th~t he and hl~ neigh:

<br /> that he would be back at the next councll meetlng wlth a deflnlte proposltlon, the
