Description
“Hackettstown is receiving full value of Federal work relief money and is accomplishing a much needed improvement.
The clearing and widening of the brook that flows back of Park Avenue, then through the dump meadows on Franklin Street before it empties into the Musconetcong, is a worthwhile project from a sanitary point.”
