The entire quarry district was iso-
lated from electric power Saturday
afternoon for more than two hours
when two high-voltage wires, carrying
$500 volts each, came together near the
power station. The pole
near the contracted wires showed evil
dence of an automobile having collided
with it and caused Manager Young to
that the loosening of the pole
with the strong wind, enabled
the two galuminum wires to burn off.
For time only parts of Websteryille
and Graniteville were without power,
but il became necessary to make
complete shut off, affecting the entire
district. The strong winds and rain
IF Saturday afternoon was another
source of trouble for the linemen,
many times they being called to re-
move large tree limbs from wires and
make repairs.
