Court Examines Rock.

County Judge Coad and Commits
sioners RiddelI and Petre went out
wednesday to the Pugh place, about
two miles northeast of the Oak Grove
school house, to examine a ledge of
rock that had been recommended for
road purposes in that district They
found plenty of suitable material there
but owing to its situation they decid-
ed that it would cost too much to get
1t out. Up on the summit of the Eola
hills they encountered a strong cold
wind with a few spits of snow, and
though they had a fine view of the
country which included
the principal towns of the Valley, they
We're in no mood to enjoy it, for their
hands and ears clamored
for warm fire. To add to
the further hilarity of the occasion,
they had to eat their dinner in a barn
though it was a nice barn, Judge
Coad says.
