PLUM BRANCH ROADS.
Roads Not Worked in Several
Years. Edgefield Regrets to
Give Plum Branch to
Greenwood.

Brother Minis: After o long rest
we have been compelled from the
force of circumstances to invade
your sanctum once more before we
take our exit and go to the happy
hunting grounds of Greenwood
county, where mayhap or in some
way or by or in some mysterious
way be wonderfully benefited. 1t
may be that we will Jump out of the
frying pan into the fire. Two
months ago if the Supervisor had
worked straight on through our ter
ritory as was his duty, ] believe the
majority of our people would have
signed petition to have remained
in Edgefeld, but the die is cast and
nothing will ever induce them to
return to their first love unless the
good people of Eagefeld impeach
the man that occupies the supervi-
sor's Office. I am not competent or
capable with my limited English to
find words to express what / think
would be justice in the premises.
Our roads have not been work d
as they should have been since Mr..
Blocker had them worked. He car
ried .Self's plans out and gave our
roads anap-to-date working.
Mr.. Editor, it is q scandal and
disgrace to Edgefeld county to
come and drive over our roads. We
had good roads some years back
but alas where we had roads we only
hsve trails and bad ones at that. i
remember the time when you could
drive two wagons abreast and room
to spare while now there are but
few places that one vehicle, can pass
another without one of than driv-
ing two wheels into the ditch for
the other to pass. There are bill
sides where the bitches are so deep
and the road so narrow that one ye-
hieae must of necessity wait atsthe
foot of the hill until the one coming
passes him before he can proceed.
Now, in conclusion, can such roads
be called public highways; not by
any means. We have paid our mon
ey and have notreceiyed a penny's
worth for three years. Our people
want their money or its equivalent
and the only way that is left them
is to go as they voted. Many of our
people are loath to leave old Edge
field and some few of them that
voted to go out wanld rather remain,
but. 80 said In the outset, the die
is cast and we arc not responsible.
] have been informed that some OF
the best men in EdgeGeld talked to
the supervisor and tried to get him
to work our roads if he did nothing
more than to clean out the bitches
and fill the worst holes with rock,
and he refused to do anything.
If we had elected John Blocker
and held on to him We would have
acted wisely, and we had another
good man. Mr.. Reel and we OF the
majority left him ont. I know that
/ have many good friends in old
Edgefeld and if we 90 into Green
weod / will still have that kindred
feeling for them and ] am sure of
the same kindred feeling from them
towards me.
Brother Minis, pardon me for
this lengthy letter and will prom
ise to do better in the future.
Don Carlos.
