nonnces its readiness to assist us
to prevail upon our County Courts
to build pike from pike to pike
through Bethany. 1t requires no
argument to demonstrate the need
of such work, but we apprehend
that neither court will proceed in
the matter unless it is asked. To
start the matter we suggest that the
people in that whole country sign a
petition to the courts in each county
asking the necessary appropriations
from each county to build to the
line. If this cannot be secured it
may arouse the people so materially
interested and result in the forma-
ton of stock company. A through
pike to Fayetteville is a sore need,
its absence disgrace to both coun
ties. 1t must be built somehow.
1t would be better if il were straight
through, but the other route re-
quires less work at present.
