SUIT OF MUCH LOCAL
INTEREST HEARD THIS
WEEK AT WISE

A case of much interest in this
section, 0. Marvin Phillips VS.. w.
Orville Branham, was decided in
favor of Phillips by Judge Nor
ton. of Wise county, this week.
In this suit, Marvin Phillips,
better known here as Marve Har-
ris was suing for possession of
a farm owned by his mother, the
late Polly Harris, and her hus-
band, Pres Harris, which was
sold to Mr.. Branham after the
death of Mrs. Harris.
The question was on the con-
struction of the deed: as to wheth
er Polly Harris had only a life
estate in the property or whether
she held it in fee simple. The
courts decision was that she held
it in fee simple Gan unlimited tt
tle) and that on her death the
property passed to her son, Mar
vim Phillips, instead of to her
husband.
The case will, in all probable
ity, be taken to the court of ap-
peals, according to Attorney A.
M. Phipps, who represented Mr..
Branham in the suit.

SUPERVISORS PROVIDE
ADDED HELP TO PATROL
WOODS

The Board of Supervisors OF
this county in meeting Monday
appropriated $4,000 for the pur-
pose of hiring additional help to
assist in patrolling the woods be-
fore the opening of the squirrel
season, September 18th.
1t is understood that two or
three special game wardens, one
or two part time deputy sheriffs
and maybe one or two private
citizens will be employed for this
purpose at such times as is deem
ed necessary.
The Board unanimously agreed
to the appropriation, in view of
the fact that the amount paid in
III OOS CdSS LIDS OSSi1 UNUSUALLY
heavy this year, and that ma
jority of such taxpayers keep
hunting dogs and are vitality in
terested in the enforcement of
the game laws. It was pointed
out that here, as in all wooded
mountainous counties, violators,
anxious to secure more than their
share of the squirrels, usually
take to the woods few days be-
fore the opening of the season
and that this class are hard to
apprehend and that every effort
should be made to aid the game
warden in the difficult task,

Over The Backyard
Fence

The hard ROADS OF D1ckeIlSod1
county have been getting a deal
of treatment this summer. An
other layer of stone and tar is
being added to the main lines.
That is a help to the few who
travel the roads and the roads
will be kept from going down.
But the next best roads, those
which had rough stone beaten in
back in WPA days, make rough
going. When you try to drive
over one of them, it is worse
than chugging along on a log
train.
And that leads us to the state
ment that there is lot of road
work to be done in the county
when the war is over. Dickinson
did not fare so well in this years
highway budget. as our neighbor
counties got considerably more
money. But that is nothing to
let out a Rebel yell about, for
that does not often do much
good. It would be wiser to get
together on a plan for the i'm
mediate future and press that
plan with all our power.
We have around eighty miles
of hard surfaced road in our
county. Our plan should call for
that much more. We can think
of a dozen stretches that should
be built. There is that link up
Open Fork and through Green
wood to the Wise line. There is
the route from Clintwood by way
Of the mouth of Cranes Nest to
the Buck Pickett Gap. And don't
forget that road from Nickels
Gap to Skeetrock. Hard surface
on Brush Creek and up Pound
River would accommodate
school bus and hundreds of peo-
pie. The link up Caney Ridge to
the Wise line is needed. Hard
surface from Fremont to Dog
Branch and down Lick Creek to
Sand Lick would give an outlet
to vast territory. That gap on
Route 80 from Rock Lick on to
Indian Creek should be finished.
nara surface from f1aySl 10
Splashdam would help those
good people in the little mining
town. All this may sound like a
lot of dreaming, but if we plan
it and ask for it in the right way
we can get it.
We are not much interested in
any super highway leading out
of Dickinson County. Just give
