Gaffney, s. Cit is expected that
the work of developing CASTOR Shoals,
a property on Broad river, about five
miles from Gaffney, will be started at
once. This property and other water
privileges were acquired by the Calf
ney Manufacturing Company some
time ago, but were sold recently to a
company that Mr.. J. B. Cleveland, OF
Spartanburg, is said TO be at the
head of. This company had a corps
of surveyors at work at the property
last week and it is thought here that
the work of developing will he begun
in the near future. This property IS
considered very valuable and If prop
erly developed it is thought that these
falls will furnish water power sufii-
cient for the manufacturing plants
at Gaffney, Spartanburg, Cherokee
Falls, Blacksburg, in South Carolina
and Shelby and other points in North
Carolina.
