Members and a Road Contractor Al
most Come to Blows Over Road
The short and ugly word was
passed at a meeting of the Levy Court
Wednesday. when Commissioner
William A Scott and Thomas r.
Claringbold. contractor for the new
road between Blackbird and Smyrna,
had such a heated argument that
other members of the Court had to
jump between them to prevent a fist
fight. Scott objected 70 the payment
by the Court of S11O5. 95 due the
contractor for work on the highway.
He said while six months from the
time the road was finished chickens
were digging stones from il and the
Levy Court had to expend $1,000
on it for repairs ''You lie. Mr..
Scott. Carlingbold shouted as he
jumped to his feet. What you have
said is not so. if you have any ae-
cusations to make why don't you give
the details and prove them?" Mr..
Scott said he could and would prove
the road was worst piece of construc-
tion in the county. Standing one in
side and the other outside the railing
that surrounds the Commissioners desk
the two men shouted and thrust at
each other. while other men struggled
to keep them apart and to pacify
them. Finally the Court allowed the
bill of the contractor. despite Scott 8
objections.
