The lanterns fell victim to careless motorists who crashed into the barricade protecting a rough spot. on the highway opposite Collefe street, Town workmen had been digging at. this point in order to lay a sewer and the ditch had been filled up, leaving an unpaved portion with a drop of two or three inches from the street level, The barricade was quite visible by day and at night a red globed lantern gave warn- ing of its presence.
