A letter was received from T. 1)
. Harris who owns a farm near Brook

j to make easy terms with the Board
for a right of way from the Annapo
lis-Baltimore boulevard, which would
mean a cutoff of more than four miles
• from South Baltimore. In making the
, offer. Mr. Harris directed attention!
to the fact that the county autliori-1

Department officials said that while
the campaign had been successful the
