Notice, Mr. Supervisor

We hope that the supervisor will
findit possible to place the chaingang
on the road leading to Chaplin from
Wyses Ferry, commencing at the new
steel bridge and keep the work up un-
til the road is completed at Chaplin.
This is fast becoming one of the most
important highways in the county as
we'll as one of the most important in
the state. This piece OF road needs
work and needs it bad. We are notag-
itating, however, the removal of the
chaingang from the Fork, but there is
no piece Of road that is Of more impor-
tance to the people of the Fork than
the road from Lexington to Chaplin by
way of the steel bridge. Let this road
be worked as soon as possible, please.
