Surveyors Report.

From the IFillidmSton Temperance Standard.
To the Corporators Of the Bolton, Will
liamston, Easley and French Broad VAL
ley Railroad.
GENTLEMEN: Having completed the
preliminary survey of the Road from
Beton to the nearest and most eligible
point Of crossing the Blue Ridge Noun
tains, ] herewith submit my report:
BY its charter the Road is to extend
from Belton, Anderson County, via Will
liamston, Anderson County, via Easley,
Pickens County, crossing the Atlanta
and Charlotte Air Line Railroad at that
place, thence to some point in the Blue
Ridge Mountains, at or near Sassafras
Gap, through which Broad Gauge Rail
road may be constructed into the Valley
of the French Broad River, in the State
of North Carolina.
The country through which the pro-
posed route is laid presents well-defined,
broad, and almost unbroken ridge, which
form the dividing line between the tribu-
taries OF the Savannah River on the one
side, and the tributaries of the Saluda on
the other. Knowing the expense attend
ing the construction and repairs OF
bridges and trestles, have endeavored
to hold this ridge as long as practicable.
Starting at Bolton, this Line follows
the top of ridge on which the main pub
lie road is now located. Six and half
miles from Belton it passes within the
corporate limits of Williamson, and
thence, still holding the ridge, the course
