CAN'T WE GET
THIS RAILROAD?
Work on Extension Of G. & X. /,
to Commence Soon.

The following dispatch from
Greenville to the Columbia State
under date of last week should
be of interest to Pickens people;
From an official ss6rce It is
learned that the>work of exten-
sion on the Greenville railway
will begir within the next 80
days. Within the past week
engineers have completed the
survey from Davenport to Gap
Creek Gap, a distance Of 10
miles. This gap is at the top Of,
the Saluda ridge, and the route
laid out by the engineers on a
grade of 68 feet to the mile.
This is considered a remarkably
low grade for a ..1ountain road,
and is an agreeable surprise to
the promoters.
The Gap creek route is the
lowest route across the Blue
Ridge mountains between Rich
mond and Atlanta. Recent de-
velopments certainly mean that
the Knoxville road will be put
through within the next twelve
months.
A branch of this railroad could
be brought by Pickens if the
people would take hold, and the
benefits to accrue to Pickens
town and comfy from an enter
prise of this kind cannot be es-
timated.
Our business men should get
behind it and bring it from Ma
rietta by here and on to Ander-

sleeping in the home next door?-and
the sad news was broken, hope, my
dear sir. that you will not ever have to
pass through an ordeal as this fond
hearted mother passed through that
night. but she could hear the fond voice
of her Saviour tina: morning quietly
saying, "My grace is sufficient for thee, y
and this beautiful Christian spirit could
exclaim with Dav.d of old, She cannot
come to me but can 60 to her"
Mr.. Editor, have been telling you all
of this time about the sad death Of our
sweet girl friend, Viola Moore. She
was one of P.ckens county's fairest
daughters, consecrated member OF
The Pickens Baptist church. leading
member and at one time president OF
the Philathea class, and filling any place
when called upon, ever ready to lay
her hand TO an cause that would uplift
those around her.
1t was sad and yet beautiful sight
when Friday afternoon at 5 O'Clock
there flied out of that stricken home
the Baraca boys bearing the pr c'ous
BODY of our sister and followed by the
Phiiathea girls who bore the flowers
which 50 many friends had brought to
bedeck her last resting place. We laid
her BODY away in the cold ground. and
as we turned sadly away, with throbbing
hearts, we could again hear that voice
which "spake never as man spake" ana
our thoughts fly backward to another
burial SCENE, near the Bethany home. 1t
comes to US with peculiar sweetness
now. He said: Thy brother shall rise
again." Then we are ready to exclalm
with exultatlon, She is not dead but
sleeping.
The aged mother turns from the grave
and reaches out to the promise Wher'
We shall meet again and there will be
no more parting. Sister Moore. may
V u gather around His throne in that
day in a circle that is solid and unbrok-
I'm. and may all Ecur voices shout ss
one V, ice that sweet old hymn, Crown
HIM Lord Of All.
