SALE OF THE TURNPIKE.
The Directors of the Wilmington
and Coast Turnpike Company Met
Yesterday Afternoon and Ratified
the Sale of the She'll Road to the
C~Ounty-They Notified the Toll
Toll After Last Night.

BY reference to the proceedings of the
board of commissioners of New Han
over county, to be found in this morn
ing's Messenger, it will be seen that
New Hanover county has purchased
from the Wilmington and Coast Turn
pike Company the shell road from Will
mington to Wrightsville, and that the
board Immediately made it a free pub
lie road.
After the commissioners approved
the negotiations, paid over the warrant
OF $1,000 for the property n received
the deed for it, a meeting of the direc-
tors of the Wilmington and Coast Turn
pike Company was held. The directors
are Messrs. Marsden Bellamy, ,Junius
Davis Geo. Haar, p. Heinsberger, Jr.,
and Alex P Adrian. They ratified the
sale of the road, and last evening in
formed the keepers at the toll houses
OF the sale and instructed them to COL
lect no more toll after last night.
Heretofore the toll on the road from
here to Wrightsville was so cents for a
double team vehicle, % cents for a bug
gy with a single horse and Is cents for
a cart. On and after today no more
toll will be collected, and when the
truckers along the road heard last
NNoAS NAol lilCy SOOlO uOW COI1S W lOWu
free there was universal rejoicing. Some
of them have paid from 10 to 60 cents a
day to get their produce to market, so
the purchase of the road lifts a big
burden from them and very materially
INCREASES the value OF their lands.
There is even more rejoicing in the
city, as the shell road was always popu-
lar for driving When money had to be
paid over it. Now hat there will be
free driving it is anticipated that it will
be ten times more vehicles along the
turnpike than ever before.
The Wilmington and Coast Turnpike
60. was chartered in 1875, and we un-
derstand that it's remaining property
will be closed out or divided up, after
which it will 90 u OF existence. The
only real estate left to the company now
are the three toll houses and a few acres
of land surrounding them.
The keepers of the toll houses are
now without their calling, and in n
instance at least it will be like turning
one out Of house n home. Mrs.
Wright, who keeps the third toll house
near Wrightsville, a punched tickets
for-the last twenty years, and, of course,
there is something pathetic about her
giving up the turnpike.
