THE OLD C. & C. K. It.
How Sherman Destroyed th
Kail road and How it was llcbuilt.
After thfl burning of Columbia
by Sherman's army in February
1865, the march to the north wn<
commenced and thejdestruciiou of
the Charlotte and Columbia rail
r?>:\d, now the C. C. and A. divis
ion of tho Southern, was pushed
"with vigor. The army struck
camp six miles above Columbia.
The army remained in camp a
couple of days, or until tho road
was torn up from this city to the
camp. After this work ct do
struction was completed t he army
took up their march Northward.
The mode of operation was to
tear up the track, build fires with
tho crossties and stringers, 1 \y
the iron rails across the fire until
the railB became redhot and then
twist them in all manner of shapes
with tools gotten up for the pi.pose.
Another method was to
heat the rails in the middle and
bend them around trees and tcl
egraph poles, thus rendering them
useless ns they thought., but not
so, as will be shown later. It
must bo remembered that thorn
were no" steel rails in use at that
time. On the Charlotte and Columbia
railroad was what was
known as "chub," or flange rails,
a llat bar of iron with boles in the
ll uige for the purpose of fasten
nig the rail to the stringer. i'iie
stringer was held in place by ihe
notches cut in the tie, a large tie.
called a "gain" tie or umai:i" tie
by some.
Between each "gain" ti* tin ve
was a small tie placed on which
the stringer rested. The svviili
wa9 of the construction of most
of the railroads in this pection ? f
the country at that time.
The process of tearing up the
road was continued with the
advance of the army to a point a
few miles south of Chester At
this point the army left the road
and marched across the countr
t-owarda tho North Carolina line,
thus leaving the road intact bet
woen Chester and Charlotte. The
surrender came on and the clfioers
lound themselves with no road
from Blackstock, some 50 milei
north of this city. After things
had settled down tho work of reI
lilding tire road was commenced
Thero were no rails to be bought,
i ? the question of straightens g
out the bent and twisted rails was
t .ken up and it was decided te
undertake tho job. Brick furnaces
v, re built something like an old

Dutch ovon, tho rails being laid
in the furnaces and heated red
hot, then taken out and hammered
out straight. Those which
were twisted would be untwisted
by. means of tools devised for tho
work, then laid on a Hat slab of
iron and hammered out straight.
In this way the old rails were
brought into use once more, and
continued in uro for some years
j afterward, until tho more .noderu
rails were brought into use.
While a squad of men were
teaming up tl e road and twisting
n rails i;u old section master
was looking on. The officer in
charge of the men remarked to
! section man ; "Say, old man,
you are out of a job: you will
a' ver be able to work theso rails
ain." I ho section master re,
Iiod : "111 see about it after you
ar<* p;one. I will then go to work
an 1 straighten out those rails and
bo reads for trains to run over
tliom in a very short time." For
I'lis speech of tho section man
the orticors cnmo near putting him
under arrest, but did not, and the
section man lived to make good
his assertion.
In these times Mr. William
Johnson was president of the
road and Mr. James Anderson
superintendent. While the work
of rebuilding tho road from Go
lumhia to Hlackstock was under
vny tho ro id north of Blackstock
wm b.dntr operated. A small
shop '.as built at Chester and
sueh tools and material as could
ho scraped up from tho burned
