THE RIVER BRIDGE.
PowELL's Fort. July 18th, 1890.

PowELLe FORT, July 18th, 1871.
Mr.. Editor -
After the long wait of years
our people are more than delighted to
know that the bridge across the river on
the main road from Woodstock to the
Fort Valley is at last a certainty, indeed,
that work has actually commenced on it.
and in few months, IL no unforeseen ac
cldent intervenes we will have our hope
of years at last realized. But, Mr.. Editor,
| know that many of your readers will be
surprised when tell you of the shameful
condition Of the road itself, and of the
neglect of those who have it in charge
and whose duty it Is to see that it is kept
in good condition. In many places the
road is 50 bad that 1t Is actually unfit to
haul anything like load over it, and
some of the chuckholes are really danger
Gus. The material for the abutments and
pier will be qusrried from a splendid de-
poslt of brown stone at the top of the
mountain, but we are informed that I'M
less the road is at once repaired 1t will be
almost impossible to haul the stone over
it to the river. This IS shameful ad-
One of the principal roads in
the county, Overwhich the trade of a
large section must pass. road that re-
Gently cost large amount of money and
work to build, and which was one of the
best mountain roads in the State, is al
lowed through the sheer neglect of duty
of the officials in charge of it to
become so bad that it is impossible
to haul over it the material requir'
ed for a great improvement on its
line. After the death of the lamented
WIN. Headly, we often heard
the remark, "Headly is dead and the
bridge died with him" But the bridge
lives and it seems that it is the road Of
ficlals that are dead. The road from the
river to Woodstock is but little better
than the mountain section.
Now, Mr.. Editor, we want to know II
there is not law that will punish road
officials for such glaring neglect of duty :
Some of us who are interested in this
matter propose to have an investigation
made unless the road is put in good con-
ditiOn in a short time. speak for many
persons who live at different points along
the road, and who pay their taxes and
are always ready to work their time ont
on the road. y.

On Tuesday evening the report reached
Ms that the barn at the Poor's house OF
this county had been struck by lightning
set on fire and totally destroyed. Further
information proved the report to be true
The large barn was. struck about the
middle of the day, and IN few moments
the flames were bursting forth from all
parts of the binding which was filled
with wheat ard hay. The loss will be
pretty heavy as the wheat destroyed
amounted to about five hundred bushels
A large amount of hay, a wagon and
other property were also destroyed. We
suppose the building was insured, but the
contents will probably be total loss
With the exception Of small amount
the entire wheat crop Of the farm wal
consumed.
