Red Chute and Flat River.

From what we have seen
and heard from others we
believe that good navigation,
during high water in Red Riv-
er. could he got through these
streams to Bodcau lake. We
had occasion lately TO visit low
er Flat river and were aglCea
bly, surprised TO find that it
belied its name remarkably
Instead of being fat it had
there as deep il channel appar-
entyl, as Red Rivers. We
learn that this deep channel
extends from Loggy bayou up
to where Cross bayou, as it is
called, comes into it near the
bridge on the Atkins landing
road. This cross bayou is very
deep also and connects with
Red Chute near the Red Chute
bridge on same road. So Red
Chute, the Cross bayou. and
Flat river really constitute one
stream and is the real outlet
of Bodcau lake. When Bod
eau is not very high and but
little water runs from the riv-
er to the back swamp, the
water takes down this one
stream having the three names
During nigh water a portion
of Badcau's warter passes
from Red chute through
Swami lake.
Directly in the channel OF
these bayouS there is an oc,
casional cypress stump which
would have to be cut out be
fore navigation. These and
overhanging trees could be chi
by ten hands i'm hundred
days, during Summer and
Fall.

times in Georgia, and especially in
Miliedgeville. How justice was ad-
ministered in the old times is told in
tho following paragraph
Among the earlier "reminiscences of
Milledgeyille the speaker described
the ducking of II common scold, under
solemn sentence of the law, in the
Oconee river, by tho high sheriff of
tho country, before the transition
from the rigid common law to our
popular code. The speaker had also
seen, about the year 1914 or 1915, a
man executed for the passing of five
dollar counterfeit bill ! The present
temper of the age, and tho resultant
change of laws in these instances, arc
striking illustrations Of progress.
