SewerContract Readied for SigningToday Cedarville village council at a meeting Monday evening author­ ized the letting of a supplemen­ tal contract to the Upton Broth­ ers of Dayton to complete the contract undertaken hut forsaken by the W. L. Harper company, for the extension of sanitary sewer lines. After preparatory work and considerable of the excavating done, the Harper company aban­ doned the project. However, the letter of the con­ tract with that company will he carried out, as its bondsmen are held responsible for its fullfill- ment. Actual signing and a few de­ tails of the new contract were to be completed at a meeting with the Upton Brothers company Thursday evening, a few hours after the Herald went to press. Interviews have been held with several prospective bidders on the uncompleted project. The firm to which it is being let was considered wholly reliable and of unquestioned financial status. SuesVillage OfCedarville For$5,500 IS IMPROVED Pearl Huffman is improved but remains in Springfield City hospital. Mr. -Huffman received a broken knee and fractured hip in an auto accident last week: He expect^ to returned to his *home^soon. Kenneth and Elizabeth Wlse- cup have brought suit against the village of Cedarville, its officials and a construction company for $5,500, in the common pleas court. The suit stems form the de­ layed completion- of a contract for laying sewers, a line of which passes the Wisecup home on Bridge street. In the petition the Wisecups state that they completed their new home in July, 1948. They charge that since December of that year when installation of a sewage line in their neighbor­ hood began, thd street has been dug out, the curbing in front of their home has been removed, their yard rutted by heavy ve­ hicle tracks, large chuck holes dot the street, their property’s drainage tile has been made use­ less qnd access to their home has been blocked. It’s a condition, they say, which has existed ever since December, 1948. The estimate the cost o f re­ storing their land to its former condition at $5,500. Contractor Defaults The W. O. Harper Construction Co. of Cincinnati defaulted on the sewer contract after a few months, work. The village is hold­ ing the bonding company liable for performance of the contract, meanwhile arranging for another construction company to carry it out. Work is expected to short within a short time, it is under­ stood. G. 0, P.
