1t would be a good time after some
of the showers to use the split log

The point of all this is that l am
going to continue to talk about roads
so long as l write for this paper, and
until the people of Newberry county
wake up and do something worth
willie Under the present system we
will never nave any roads worth while,
and We will go on spending some $780,
600 to $4,000 year and have nothing
when We are through. You may talk

ing up of tie rural community and the

the making and the executing the
law to set the example of respect and
obedience.

l took a trip over to Greenwood
county on last Sunday to spend the
dav with the "old folks at home" The
distance is only twenty-five miles. A
very nice run, even with Ford, if
there we're any road. l went out tie
steel bridge road via Silverstreet. The
road this far is good for a Newberry
road. On up to Mr.. Henry Fellers
and to the Williams place, and even to
vaughnville, you can go over the road
with some degree of comfort, though il
is rough and jolly. I was afraid to
risk the crossing of the Saluda at the
railroad bridge, because the approach
on this side mas been in bad condition
so l went via Island Ford. l remem-
bered on a former occasion or two
when Pope Coleman told me it was
Just like a plank road down to, the
river at t3is place. That was the
time we had Mr.. 2. F. Wright's Cal
with tMr. Herman Wright driving and
the writer and Irwin Feagle going to
Greenwood to meet the New York Her
aid and the Atlanta Journal scout
cars, and we had gone this way to
scout out the road. We got stuck t2en
with Mr.. Wright's big White steamer
and we remained stuck for couple
of hours. l asked the old negro who
was helping US if the road was in
Newberry, and he said it was, but
that Newberry lad either abolished
the Office of supervisor or the officer
was dead, they mad never heard of him
in that community. Then last August
Fred Dominick and the writer drove
through there in Ford No. Ill and we
made it without sticking, but when we
got through we were mud. And then
was fool enough to try it again last
Sunday. The road is worse now than
on any of the other occasions t2at !
have been along there. The big rain
that Newberry had on Thursday must
have passed along this section. The
road, or wl3ere the road is supposed
to be, is nothing but big bitches,
though the mud was not quite as bad
as on former occasions. l overlook
a man in a one-horse wagon, with his
wife and children, after passing over
almost impossible roads, and as he
drove to one side to let me pass l
asked him about the road ahead. He
said that over which l had just come
was a fine road compared to what was
just ahead. l would have retraced
right then and there, but l was going
down till and 1 could not turn and
could not back, and besides saw one
track ahead, and knew that
if an automobile could pass over the
road Ford could, so l kept in fairly
good cheer. 1 asked the man with
the one horse wagon how 1 would
to get through, and tae re-
piled: Back your ears, shut your
eyes and let her CO." And that is
about what l did. And 1 got through,
but l did not attempt to return that
way. After we got on the hill on the
Greenwood side of the river the road
was fine. l returned by way Of Green
wood and Laurens, a distance of sew
enty-fve miles against twenty-five.

I have been speaking through the
same medium for many years in be-
half of the split log drag, and began
before I ever saw one in actual use,
and before there was one in Newberry
county. And the subject Of better
roads has been a hobby for a long
time. The split log drag has been
used in Newberry to some extent, but
not near so much as it should be. And
the question of road improvement is
receiving attention as never before.
The herald and news. [volume] (Newberry S.C.) 1903-1937, 1915-07-23
