<br /> To drain the proper~y of the Co~ins Machine Works, Incorporated wil-l' require the-installation
<br />of a 15 inch s~orm drain ~o connecz with the incinerator d~ainage system. This we in.nd ~o do; however, it
<br />will be necessary for Mr. Colli~s 5o ha~e his land graded so~ the water ~ill flow 5o the catch ~msin. The
<br />proper~y of the Portsmouth Dressed Beef, Incorporated is legated adj scen~ ~o the Norfolk-Portsmou%h Belt Line
<br />~R~ilroad Company and along 'side the railroad is a drainage ditch. If the proper~ df the Portsmouth Dressed
<br />Beef, Incorporated were graded to drain Eo this ditch,I it is believed ~h~s will correct the condition.
