A SIGHT SELDOM
SEEN IN THIS COUNTY

People for miles around the county
in the neighborhood of South River
bridge are still talking about the
great sight witnessed yesterday aft
ernoon. the like of which was never
seen before.
The bridgekeeper was obliged to
open the draw of the South River
bridge to permit a schooner to pass
through. 1t was at time in the aft
ernoon when traffic over the state
road from Washington, Solomon's and
other popular drives. was heaviest.
While the draw was open automobiles
were lined up on either side of the
draw, in lines that extended the full
length of the bridge, and far up the
hill both on the Annapolis side and
on the South River side.
So numerous were the cars and so
long did the line stretch that the last
car was out of sight in the waiting
line on both sides of the draw. A
gentleman driving his car from
Washington to Arundel-on-the-Bay,
who happened to be in waiting line
of cars. said that in some fifteen
years travel over this road he had
never witnessed such a sight as that
yesterday afternoon.
In the line were cars not only from
Maryland and the District of Column
bia, but from Massachusetts, New
York, Virginia. and one from CHI
cago.
