Hospital;

and unanimously ap-
proved by the Court, that the Commissioners Court of Kerr County hereby
requests the Texas Highway Department to construct a State maintained
roadway commencing at the Kerrville State Hospital and State Spur 98 and
running north across the Guadalupe River approximately one-half mile via
Lemos Street in the City of Kerrville to connect with State Highway 27 and
that such construction shall include a low water bridge crossing the Guada-
lupe River;
And it is further ordered that Kerr County agrees to furnish in con-
junction with the City of Kerrville, all necessary right-of-way required for
this project, the said right-of-way to be furnished the State of Texas at no
cost to the State;
And it is further ordered that the Clerk of the Court shall furnish
