TO REBUILD STEEL BRIDGE . uggestion of The Herald and News: Acted Upon and Bridge Will be Rebuilt Instead of Ferry. The committee from the citizens' tetin ar-"ted upn) the suggestion of 'he lerald and News and sent a spe ial committee composed of Messrs. F. Wri rht. C. T. Summer and J. A. 1 hurton to the steel bridge on Tuesday I lorning in company with Supervisor Monroe Wicker. It was decided to bandon the idea of building the fer v and to proceed at once to the re uilding of the steel bridge. Mr. Vicker states that the bridge is all ere having just been turned over nd that he can rake it to pieces and ebuild it with very little expense for ew parts. Mr. Wicker will move the hain gang to the bridge the latter art of this week and will commence I ie work of rebuilding next week. In is he will have the cooperation of he supervisor and citizens of Saluda ounty, and will be able to replace e bridge about as soon as he could uild a ferry and with very little ad itional cost. Mr. Wicker thinks that II ithin two or three weeks he will ave the bridge ready for travel. It is much better to do this than to ave undertaken to build a tempor- 1 ry ferry because the money put into e ferry would have been wasted ractically. Besides, as stated in The [erald and News on Tuesday, the erry would not have accommodhted ae people who desire to cross from e Saluda side. Granted Bail.
