Game Fowls And Bull-dogs Crowded Him Out

Some interesting reading may always be looked for in the reports of DEdward Batwell, chief of the Ypsilanti fire department. This year his complaint is as follows: "During the past year a shed was built for the use of the Fire Department for storage of its property, and when completed, was paid for out.of the Fire Dept. fund; but twelve feet square was allowed to the Fire Co., while therestwasfilled with old wagons, and the city game fowl, and bull-dogs, leaving the property of the Fire Dept. out doors to rot, while the shed, built for its protection, and paid for out of its funds, was occupied as above stated."
