A committee was ap pointed to view the property and de- praisers to view the property and de termine the proper amount of dam ages due Mr. Leach. This committee set the amount of damages at $750, adding $50 more fcr the replacing of a fence which had been torn down, And $50 for the land which was used in grading up the road. Mr. Leach was reticent to discuss the situation following announcement of the award saying he was waiting for the decis ion of the state, and upon that alone would depend what the next move will be.
