Never have the citizens of PENIS Grove
burned so much wood as during the past
winter. The scarcity of coal made ready
sale for timber and gave employment to
wood choppers as never before. The
largest tract of timber cut off near Penn's
Grove was about 20 acres owned by DIR.
John M. Summerill on the right side of
the road to Georgetown crossroads. This
timber was cut off in 1910 and the left
side of the road was cut off in 1887.
Some think the coal strike was a benefit
to some poor men. If there had been no
strike it would have cost 500 to $50 for
coal. Because wood had to be used lots
were bought for from Sc to So off of which
enough wood was got to last two winters.
DR.. Summerill will let the land grow in
timber again.
