Toward the east of the Raycroft pro- -perty, lot 28, concession 18, Elma, is located the point midway between Guelph and Goderich; and the plan showing the west to east survey ends there. <A drain is crossed on the Par- tridge farm, and the following notes are made as to others: George Near, swampy, Richard Scott, swale and light soil, clay loamy Wm. McCullough, bush and clay. - . ' The reader must now turn his atten- tion to the eastern boundary of Perth County, wheré thé railway is to enter from Waterloo County. Ets pctnt off entrance is further up along the town- Perth county, the line passing through the townships "of Morfhfsgton; and Elma, These lines are fied in confor- miavee with the Railway Act, and con- sist of long rolis of tracing paper, four inall, upon two of which are placed the route of the line. On the others are the elevations of the line. The reason that there are four planus in- steal of two, xs might be expected, lies apparently inthe fact that the survey hes been made" in two- sections, en- gineets starting out from Guelph and other engineers from Goderich, The half-way point Detween Guelph and Goderich -isinoPerth county, on the farny of Mr, Wm. Raycroft. This point is Approximately {0 mi'es from eilher plitce, the total distance being @ little over 8) miles. The plans filed here show the route and elevations lespec- tively from Huron Con, ty border east to Riayerofts farm, aud from. Waterloo County border southwest to RayecrofUs farm. Nothing interests a community more than the Toute of a proposed railway tor railway companies bave Lroad ex- propriatory rights, aud where their right of way runs through a building, the building they must have, although the law requires that they must pay a good price for it. 'The plans on file here, which are copies of the origiuai plaus submitted to the Board of Kail- way Commissioners in Canada, and sanctioned on July 2, show that a num ber of buiidings will be cut in two by the right of way, which is one bundred feet wide for most of the way. In Mul- verton it narrows down to fifty feet bat many buildings there will suffer, and the land which is to be used fur the station ground also includes property on which there are buildings. In Perth County the line will pass through or near a number of villages, Moukton, Milverton aud Millbank hav- ing stations, The "road will undoubt ediy prove @ great benefit to thuse places. The road from Goderich enters Perth County atthe extreme seuth of Elma fownship, coming iu from Grey Town- shipin Huron County. Its point of en trance is about 1,500 feet north of the road between Logan and Elma, to which it runs parallell. This. section uf the railway runs squarely across the luts, beginuing at lot t, in the 18th con- cession of Elma 'Township, and cor.tiu- uing south east across that part of the couuty, Besides roads between lots, it .@rosses a bumber of farm lots. fullowing list of properties through which the road passes after entering the County, stars denote those on whicl; the crossing of a farm read is marked ou the plaus :--Thomas Brown, George Brown, Jas.

It is noted that iu the above list a swale is marked as existing ou the Jas, Heury farm, lot 9, and that on the Stewart farm, lot i0,a drain is marked to be diverted south of the railway line. Phe station grounds at Monkton are to ve situated west of the village. Tuey are kbout 2,000 feet long uy 200 feet wide. The station grounds ate ou the property of Mr. 'iomas Dobbs, and also thatof Mr. Avdrew Lyers, Mrs. U. Oliver and Mr... T. MeKeuzie, on which there are baildings, aud where the station itself will piovubly ve lo- cated, The line then crosses Winstan- 'vy street, directly suuth of John street, having Mr. @. Golightly's property en the north, and Mr, Fred. Hichards on the south, The tracks will be paratle: to Joti street, und ubeut fifty feet from it, the right of way extending to thestreet.
