SHOHELING TIE EARTH. .
The Contractors Begin the Grading of the
Augusta Division.
ICulunlbia Record, 18th. !

Just two weeks ago it was announced
that Manager r. \. johnson, Of the
Three C's railroad system, had finally
given out the contract for the grading
of the Augusta division of the road,
from Newberry to Blacksburg, in this
State. As soon as this announcement
was made, the civil engineers pushed
ahead in the work Of stalking off the
route, and Blackshurg took on q boom
which drew Il good deal of Northern
capital there and sent up the prices OF
real estate.
The whole route has now been staked
out and the line between the two points
established. Yesterday morning DR.. j.
G. Black, one of the officials ofthe
road, went up to see the work on the
grading commence. Already large
forces Of hands had been scattered
along the route at different points near
the Newberry end under Contractors
Jones, Of Tennessee, and Blanton, OF
Shelby, y. c. Major $. R. Adams, OF
Camden, and Il 1orkville firm will
also work part of the contract. The
work was commenced at the Newberry

picnics.
Henry Kennedy and anSsher colored
man want the railroad company to pay
them $3.50 for the right of way along
the small strip Of land in Graveltown,
fifteen feet wide and two hundred feet
long, which has been used as a street
for about twenty years. The company
obtained permission to go through the
street and adjust the price after the
grading was finished. Henry Kennedy
claims $500 for his damages. The
company is willing to pay reasonable
amount for the street.
