The Park Commissioners propose to 
place before the citizens for their con- 
consideration in the near future the 
purchase of a lot of land owned 
by the Boston and Maine Railroad 
on the water front, a short distance from 
the Manchester station. This would 
make a most desirable landing. The 
scheme is to take some of the money al- 
ready appropriated for dredging near 
the lot and use it for its purpose. The 
board has decided not to have any dredg- 
ing done at the park this year, though 
$3000 was appropriated for this pur- 
pose. The company now dredging the 
harbor gets about 27 cents a yard from 
the state, but it wants 48 cents from the 
town for doing additional work. The 
board would not hear to it.
