Hartsville. March 29.-Communi-
cations have been lately received in
Hartsville from parties Interested in
a Southern railroad extension by this

route commences at Norwood, on the
main line Of the Southern, and comes
by Wadesboro, y. c., Chesterfield
Court House, IIartsville. Bishopville
and Sumter, from whence it goes on
To Charleston. 1t is not claimed
that the Southern Railway officials
are behind this proposed line but the
people interested seem to have the
project much at heart.
glance at the proposed route will
demonstrate that it will open up some
Of the inest farming country in this
State. Also that it gives the Southern
a direct line from the North to the
sea.
