A macadanlized road created by leg
islative enactment of Virginia and lead
ing from Winchester in the valley t.
Parkersburg on the Ohio river, was com
pleted about sixty years ago. 1t soon
became mighty thoroughfare and over
its rocky surface passed the hunter
drovers and movers, together with Cone
stoga wagons drawn by six-horse bell
teams, and six-horse stake coaches, q
flood of Drawn and muscle pouring into
the ricn valleys watered by the large
rivers to the westward. This road pass
ed through Romney, Clarlsburg, Salem
and West Union: but any place along
which flowed the stream of travel was
considered "in town. Tho wagons and
the movers were Scarcely ever out OF
sight
In the mind of a child, the driver Of
bell team was the next greatest man
in the world--to the driver OF stage
coach, who, in his Imagination, was pnI
excellence, at the topI
The stage drfved wore usually blue
cloth. cut-away coat, adorned with
brass buttons; his hair WIS long, down
on his shoulders, but well CREASED and
turned under ut the ends, into round
roll, which would glisten and shine ir
the sun; his bearing and hauteur Of
manner, when passing by, his admirers
the boys and girls gathered in groups
by the wayside was amusing. Then he
would straightcn himself in the boot
of the stage and crack his longlashed
whip, with practised facility. Alas, We
never shall see again, n man with such
big feeling.
Toll gates were placed Mt every ten
miles. The law regulated the tolls: 1919
cents for a wagon and two horses; each
additional horse 3 cents scarf and two
oxen cents saddle or led horse 4 cents !;
score Of cattle 6 cents; coach or four
wheeled vehicle 25 cents.
Pike street, in CIarSsburg occupics
the site of this road. as far as the street

which may yet be found along the way
is the only relic that is now left Of this
pageant of the past. A milestone stood
