erament Hill," now broken up." It wound up lastitution Hill, as a pathway meandered round the wilds of Tanglin West, followed the general line of River Valley rd, and passed through gambier plantations "To-Bakit Tima. The only roads leaving the limited town area were Orchard-rd ending at the Police Station, to the right of which are "gam bier and pepper plintations; and Bukit Timah-rd (but the part known as Kampong Java road) just past where Newton railway station now stands. Think of it, cyclists, mo- Torists, and carriage folk! The limits of your wanderings limited to the space between Tan- jong Pagar, Sepoy Lines (but a track there- after), Orchard-rd, (and bone, of the beautiful side roads), Bukit Timah road (the canal ran down the middle, a sort of towing path on either side); Galang-rð, but not so far as the gas works!

Here are a few of the town features. A real Battery stood at the paint of the Singapore river, near where the new bridge is being built, and Battery rd. ran from it to the Square. Bou ham at was then Tavera st and ran to Boat Quay from the Square, which is significant of dropping round the corner and coming back with lips lightly brushed by the back of the happ. There was only one bridge across the alvar at the time-Joining South and North Bridge-rds. It was, of course, not the iron girder structure that now carries the trams. The bridge across the river at Hill, was then. @projected." On the other side of the mouth of the river, but much further back than now, about where the Treasury now stands, was the shore limit, and there stood the Police Office.
