SRANGE AGAIN.
TO THE EDITOR. Sir, —Aga r n aud again ; and now, it does seem really strange ! The levelling of the road from Tom Wattra's corner to Swains n's paddock, nearly a mile, was devised by Mr. Swainson aud another, and the work was done by Mr. Strange, or lulf-dono. The alleged "folly*' talked about if*, that it was left incomplete—a shofcing gallery footpath instead of a cart road ; the •• folly " was not tiiC design but the executiou. But really no workman should go bragging to the uewspapc-rd about his clever execution of his architect's design. It is supposed you have had more than enough of it.—l am, &c., Mr. Parnell.
