The Mount Holly news. [volume] (Mount Holly, Burlington Co., N.J.) 1891-1942, 1894-04-03

A party of law makers from New York
visited this county, on Friday, to inspect
our stone roads, and to examine our sys-
TEN of building them. Four notahles who
were to have been with them were not
present. They were Governors Werts, of
NewJersey; Pattison, of Pennsylvania, and
Flower, of New York, and Secretary of
Agriculture Morton. of President Cleve-
lands Cabinet.
The party started from Buffalo. At
Jersey City they took a special train
which hauled them to Camden, stopping
at Beverly. to pick up city authorities who
had been invited to 20 on the trip.
Secretary Harrison, of the State Road
Association, chaperoned the party. The
train ran to Camden, then out to Mer-
the State Board of Agriculture, greeted
them. Here the party took carriages and
drove over the Church road to Moores-
town. In this drive ample opportunity
was given to note the difference between
stone and dirt roads.
At Moorestown dinner was served at
Coles hotel. After dinner speeches were
made by several of the visitors as well as
our own citizens The remarks were
necessarily short as it was obligatory to
drive to Riverton at 3 o'clock the route
chosen being Chester avenue, Moores-
town, Bridgeboro road, Tom Brown"
road, and Westfeld and Riverton road.
