BARBECUE AT CUTOFF.
Railroad is Being Severely Condemn
ed Because it Would Not Stop
To Let Passengers Off.

\ large crowd from Newberry and
as far up the road as Abbeville. in
cIuding Dyson. Ninety Six: and
Greenwood. and from Saluda and
I,aurens counties. as we'll as from the
community. attended the barbecue at
the cutoff on last Friday. There
must have been seven or eight hun
dred people present. Many were dis
appointed. however, in that the rail
road people did not get ready to let
the water out Of the pond until II
| O'Clock. and therefore. it was not
drained! during the day, and those
who went to enjoy the fish could not
do so. There was another disappoint-
ment. also. for those who went from a
distance by the railroad. They ex-
pected that the train would stop at
the cutoff and let the passengers off
as we'll as take them on in the after
noon. For some reason the officials
issued positive orders that no train
would stop at the cutoff, though the
trains coming down had from one
hundred to one hundred and fifty
passengers, and the trains going up
an equal number. Those coming down
had to get off at Chappells and those
going up at Old Town. They were
then about three miles from the cut
off. and many of them had to walk.
Others were able to secure wagons
and bugeies and in that way went to
tie cutoff. In the party were many
ladies, some Of whom, it is stated,
walked.
Just why the railroad issued Or
ders not to stop is not known
though we have heard several rea-
sons given; among them. that this
pond belonged to the railroads and
the officials did not like it because
those who got up the barbecue under
took to form a stock company TOR
the distribution Of the fish; another
reason stated by a railroad man IS,
that the railroad people knew the
pond could not be drained on Friday
and that those who went expecting to
get fish would be disappointed and
the railroad did not care to be a par
ty to that disappointment. What
ever the reason, there we're great
many angry people and they were
verv severe in their criticism Of the
railroads and many were heard to say
that if they ever got on jury they
would certainly stick it to the rail-
roads for damages.
It does seem that it would have
been very little trouble for the trains
to stop and let the people off, es-
pecially having as large number who
desired to stop there from both Ill
rections as they had.
No good can come to the railroads
from such treatment Of the travelling
public. It is understood that herto-
fore that when as many as a half
dozen people had desired to go there
to the cutoff for the purpose Of fish
inc. the trains have stopped to let
them off, and also to take them on,
and even if the pond did belong to
the railroads, this is no proper treat
ment of the public, who had no inter-
est. Certainly it has caused very
great criticism Of the road and has
not helped to make the people feel
more kindly towards it.
