Thanks to the Seaboard, they have
put the main crossing in a passable
condition; still, planking between the
rails is the only right thing to do,
and will make a good and lasting
crossing. Hard rains and heavy traf-
fic will soon make the road over the
tracks impossible again.
Mr.. r. E. Downs is a great fisher
