citizen whom business, misfortune,
or pleasure carried abroad at night,
had to struggle in darkness" An
other in pleading for lights added
the need of crossings at the street
corners: Men can work their way
through the mud and mire, but it is
too great task for women and
children"
Again in 1847 there was described
stretch of street connecting North
Potomac Street with the road to
Waynesboro. This was then used by
many heavy wagons, but the town
stopped paving before they reached
the end of the road. So in this I'M
paved stretch it was reported as no
uncommon sight to see a wagon
""stuck fast in the tenacious mire."
Often the only way to get the wagon
out was to use jack-screws to hoist
it and then place planks beneath
the wheels.
Then in 1858 public interest was
reused to pass a vote for street
lights, and the little oil lamps of
the Lamplighter Days were in
stalled, as was told in previous col
umns of Horse and Buggy Days.
There was another change in the
government of the town in 1884,
under a new charter. The Board
of Street Commissioners was here
created. To it was given the over
sight of all jobs such as the opening
of new streets, grading, paving, re-
pairing, and the control of streets
and the police force. They were
authorized to borrow for street i'm
provement, and they purchased a
heavy street roller first. The streets
were in general improved and grad
ed. Prospect and North Potomac
Streets were at this time cut down
deep into the solid rock.
The old limestone paved streets
were not permanently satisfactory
under the heavy wagoning. So in
1884 was begun the use of vitrified
bricks. These were much better in
wet weather-and in dry; no cutting
up when it rained and no clouds
of fine limestone dust in dry
But of course there was
more noise; the rumble of steel
wagon wheels on brick.
The relative permanancy of these
brick streets as compared with
previous materials used here can be
seen in many of our streets today.
But now the bricks are going too.
And the "ONE WAY" signs have
come.
