Belleville Selected as G Terminus and
Work Being Pushed.
DARIEN, GA, July 2S-The' grading of
the Darien Short Line was completed about
eighteen months ago. Reuben K. Walker,
its energetic president, who has worked
zealously for the past two years to put
Darien in railroad communication with the
outside world, had almost given up all
hopes Of building the road on account of
the serious objections being raised TO Darien
AS terminus, when, a couple Of months
ago, a representative Of northern syndi-
cate, at Mr. Walkers suggestion, paid a
visit here for purposes Of investigation.
The report this gentleman made as to the
resources Of the country which the road
will traverse was highly flattering, but the
usual objection was made 60 DarIon as a
terminus, this city being considered too far
distant from deep water. But unlike his pre-
decessors this gentleman quietly went
to work and examined the coast
with the view OF finding an advan-
tageous terminus whereon to base his cal
culations as to whether a road through
this section would prove profitable or not
After a thorough examination of sew
eral places in the county offering
good ocean shipping facilities, Belleville,
about fourteen miles from Darien, was
c Iosen as the most suitable. The report
induced the syndicate TO make overtures to
President Walker and G. H. Hopkins,
owner of Belleville, and negotiations were
successfully completed. About 300 laborers
are now at work on the road, wbarves for
receiving the railroad iron are being built,
and 1t Is thought that wiUain four months
the road will be CO plotted to Walthour-
vile, passing through the richest sec
tiOns Of Mcintosh and Liberty coun-
ties. Belleville is a peninsula, COM
posed mostly of high land, and
containing $500 acres-900 acres being
thickly studded with oaks, and the balance
pine land and marshes It faces Sapelo,
Black Jeard and st. GATHERINGS islands On
the leftls picturesque Sutherlands Bluff and
on'the right Creighton and other smaller sea
islands, amongst which Creighton island is
deserving of special notice on account of
the length Of deep water front which IT
oifers-fully two miles, and this only three
miles, uninterrupted by shoals from the
finest bar on the South Atlantic coast, viz,
SapeO Creigh on island is the property
of Mr.. George X. Atwood.
It's salubrious air, and the assured fact
that it shortly will become an important
business center, make Belleyille a very
interesting place.
