Is it any wonder, under the circumstances
just described that these
people became greatly enthused,
that the smoldering embers of hope
blazed up with renewed energy, that
they hailed with joy the light that
came from Mt. Tabor as a beacon
which was destinied to light their
rugged pathway, lined as it was with

more prosperous times and happier

ORICIIIN OP THE RAILROAD.
On the sunny side of the eightie
the Messrs Ohadbourn, of VVilmings
ton, N 0., were operating a largesaw
mill plant in that city-and also
one at ( hadhourn, N c., then only
a small station on the Wilmington,
Columbia and Augusta Railroad,
about thirty-nine miles from Conway.
This firm, as I understand,
was composed of Messrs J II., Sr.,
George, VV 11. and .J II., Jr. It
owned or controlled large bodies of
yellow pine timber lying between
chad bourn and Mt Tabor, a distance
of about twenty miles and only a
few miles from the State line. To
get this timber to their mills these
gentlemen had built, equipped with
all necessary rolling.stock and had in
operation at tin ir own expense a logging
railroad between theso two
points and for several years after it
was operated entirely as such. I belh
veil transported neither passengers
nor freight except persons and for
persons employed by the mills; It
was strictly a private undertaking
for the development of a private
business. At the time this road
mus built and a long time after it
was in operation L have no idea that
the chadbourns had any intention
of extending 1 he road to conway.
It is doubtful if they even gave the
matter a passing thought. I know
not who ilrst comeived the idea of
the road t'-ming to conway. Whether
the chad bourns, seeing the deplorable
conditions tlien existing in Horry
and recognizing the great possibilities
of development which nothing
but a lailro-.d could possibly bring
about, first, suggested the idea ami
suggested it to the people of Ilorry,
or iho people of Horry first, made
the proportion to the chadbourns
but from information and belief I
am strongly of the opinion that it
was the latter who made the propo>
sition 10 the former. But be this as
as it may, it is certain the idea was
originated, plans laid and an understanding
had between the parties.
The agreement in a nut shell being
that the townships of Green Sea,
Si npson creek, Buyboro and couwav
Were to be bonded the constitutional
limit of 8 per cent., and for every
dollar that these townships surscribtd
the Chadbourns were to cover
it with ianother dollar. This
was the sum and substance of the
agreement, and this was the beginning
of a movement that was t hrough
the providence of God destined to
completely revolutionize condition?
revive the languishing energies of
the people and make Horry the most
progressive ciuinty in the State. It
was a )oar or more after the people
of the other townships became enthused
over the subject that the
neWS of the nronosed pvtpnsirm nf
the railroad reached Conway so slow
did it lake important news to travel
in those days. True now and then
faint whispers fell from trembling
lips but there was nothing definate
a nil little or no attention was given
the matter. In fact no credence
whatever was given it for the reason
that it was Mich a great innovation
upon the established order of
t itigs that it was beyond the comprehension
of the average citizen to
grasp its significance and meaning,
and not till later on when Mr James
II Chadbourn, Jr., began to pay occasional
visits to Conway, and later
on when be was joined in these
visits by Mr \V II Chad'uourn did
the people begin to give the matter
any serious consideration. All along
tlie line came the cheering news
that tlie people wore becoming
thoroughly aroused to the true
meaning of the innovation and
were doing all in their power to
encourage the Messrs Chad bourn in
their efforts to relieve the desperate
situation in which they were bound as
N so many slaves at work in the treadmill
doing the 1 iddmg of the taskmasters
to eke out a bare Bubsistance
for theniselvts und their loved onc3.
Be it said to the credit of these
he oes, for when everything is con
sidered? their tinancial ability toft
ther with the treinmdous p-essure
which was brought to bear to
delay the day of their solvation or
defeat their hoprs and aspirations
altogether??hey stand out as grand
$norul In; oes worthy in every way
to wear the immortelle which adorns
the biow of the victor. By this time
the light from Mt Tabor was o brilliant
that it penetrated the slumbering
Boro of Conway. hut I am
anticipating. J W 0
