The Kings Mountain Road.

in Yorkville yesterday. He said that
the Kings Mountain road up his way Is
in worse condition than he has known
it to be in for years. Rain following
recent efforts at repairs had made con-
ditions very bad. That portion Of the
road between the Courtney and Quinn
places, which had shown Improvement
following few days Of dry weather,
went down again under the recent
rains, and while an occasional car has
been able to get through during the
past week, most of them have been
stuck in the mud.
