There was a major change to the main section in about 1910 or 11. My best guess is if you buy a sliding section (skate) from a later plane (the ones with STANLEY cast into the bridge) it will line up...
My grass is never watered intentionally. The sky does that.
After first moving up here talked to someone about them mowing right after it had rained. Mentioned that in California everything on...

Though it sometimes amuses me to see our friends in other English...
The exceptions to the rules confuse some folks. The possessive its has no apostrophe the contraction it's does.
