He was , therefore , quite prepared to recommend to the Council that they take over the one road which was men- tioned in the original application , and they could deal with the other road afterwards . Both the roads lead to the same place , and they were both in a good state of repair ; in fact the people of Walford seem to have so much money to spend on these roads that they might as well undertake to do the whole district . He was perfectly satisfied to take over the two lengths of road , but they should do it in the proper form . Mr. CHILD proposed that the road in the first application be taken over .
