NEW TURNPIKE.
The General Court of this state have granted the petition of certain individuals praying for liberty to build and keep in repair a turnpike road, to begin at the most convenient place at the river road in the town of Bowcawen or Salisbury, and to extend in a western direction till it shall strike the eastern bank of Connecticut River, nearly opposite to the mouth of White River ; and also to build and keep in repair a turnpike road to begin at the east abutment of White River falls bridge, and extend southeastwardly till it intersects the road first mentioned.
An undertaking of such public utility, convenience and advantage, we doubt not, will meet the general approbation, and be encouraged and promoted by the liberal and enterprising citizens of this state.
