Book excerpt: Excerpt from Case for the Extension of the Municipal Boundary of Edinburgh, and the Transference of the Powers of the Police and Paving Boards to the Town Council Bmvms that the time approaches when the question of Municipal Extension must again be seriously considered, I have deemed it my duty to review the whole subject beforehand. From various causes, much of the information which is essential to the determination of the question is comparatively little known, and it has therefore cc curred to me to be proper to submit the following statement to the Magistrates and Council and to the public, who will thus possess the means of judging for themselves. I could have wished that the chapter as to the Paving Board had been much shorter; but I felt that a full statement was requ isite, in order that the constitution of this Board, and its relation to the City and suburban districts, and also to the Trustees of the Turnpike Roads of the County, might be rightly understood. It is proper to add, that the suggestions in this statement are made entirely on my own responsibility. In how far they are worthy of being adopted, it will be for the public.
