Good City
Government
I had the honor of serving you on city council four years during the period New
berry has had council-manager government. From that experience, and from my
experience as a businessman in Newberry, I know that council-manager govern
ment is best for our city and its citizens.
I would w r ork for an expanded recreation program, because I believe the whole
some recreation provided our youth has been the reason that Newberry has had no
youth-delinquency problem. ?
Vote Tuesday For
S. D. (Bozo) Paysinger
For Alderman Ward 3
| by Jesse Frank Hawkins, senator
from Newberry County, and Ben
F. Hornsby, senator from Fair-
field County. The benediction will
be pronounced by the Rev. John
Wessinger, pastor of Trinity Lu
theran Church of Parr.
Pinner’s Bridge is a monument
to a brave and trudging doctor.
A prayer for the bridge was first
offered by Dr. Carroll A.~Pinner,
Sr., 45 years ago. He was halted
one bitter cold night by a freight
train on the Southern Railway
trestle between Peak on the New
berry side and Austin on the
Fairfield County side. Dr. Pinner
waited there for two hours be
side a rain barrel on the 1,000-
foot-long trestle for the freight
to clear the track. It was while he
was waiting that he began to pray
for the bridge “and I have con
tinued to pray during the years
since,” said the 69-year-old phy
sician. “Just as the train passed,
I continued to cross, making short
steps on the crossties through the
darkness. There were no lights
on either side of the river during
those days.”
The bridge, costing over $400,-!
000, connects Parr in Fairfield
County with Peak in Newberry
County. Parr is the site of a $20-
million nuclear powered electric
plant.
During Dr. Pinner’s years of
practice the railroad trestle was!
the nearest and quickest route for
the doctor to travel between his
home in Peak to patients in Fair-
field County. A trip to the near
est highway bridge was at Stro
ther some 20 miles up the river
and another 20 miles back to
Parr, then the same number of
miles upon returning.
For years Dr. Pinner kept a
car at Austin in Fairfield County.
There were times when he hur
ried across the trestle, sometimes
at night, to find the gas in his
car or a tire had been stolen. Then
he had to retrace his steps across
the trestle to secure a tire or
gas. Finally he built a garage at
Austin, but the plan was aban
doned when high waters from the
river filled the garage and wreck
ed the car.
There were no paved roads and
often it was impossible to travel
by automobile. Many times he
was met on the Fairfield side by
a member of the patient’s family
who transported the doctor by
horseback, wagon or buggy.
The new bridge will be named
in honor of Dr. Pinner, Sr.; how
ever, it comes too late to benefit
him. He is proud that it will bene
fit his son, Dr. Carroll A. Pin
ner, Jr. and his son’s wife, Dr.
Harriet Edison Pinner, both of
whom practice at Peak. Also che
patients who live in Fairfield will
be benefitted.
Dr. Pinner was born in Arden,'
N. C. on June 21, 1892. It was
while on a visit to his brother,
Dr. Zachary T. Pinner, a practic
ing physician at Pomaria, some
six miles above Peak, that he!
met his future wife, the former
Miss Rosalie Suber of Peak. They
w r ere married in 1916 while he was
a student at the Medical College
of South Carolina. Following his
graduation in 1917, he began hisj
practice at Peak, serving the lo
wer rim of Newberry County and
the lower portion of Fairfield
County. His practice broadened,
and he gradually took over the
work of 13 doctors in the sur
rounding area who had either
died or retired from practice.
From his bed, where he had
been confined for a great part of
the time since his retirement some
eight or nine years ago, Dr. Pin
ner enumerated the details of his
strenuous work, ever recognizing
the fact that a doctor must go re
gardless of his tired feeling's.

life walking the' railroad trestle,”
he said as he related the difficul
ties he had encountered to reach
his patients in Fairfield County.
“There were times when ! cross
ed the trestle three or four times
a day. I would get home and have
to go right back. There is not a
foot of land over there in Fair-
field County that I don’t know.
It is a wonderful county.”
He recalled that one cold night
a man from across the river
knocked at his door near mid
night. The caller told him that his
child was sick with pneumonia. Dr.
Pinner dressed quickly, grabbed
his bag, and the two crossed to
where the man had left his horse
and an open buggy. “That was the
slowest horse and a bitter cold
night, but we finally reached the
man’s home between two and three
o'clock in the morning,” Dr. Pin
ner said. “I examined the child
and found there was nothing
wrong w’ith it. It had probably
sniffled during the night and the
mother figured it had pneumonia
and sent for the doctor.
“I never got a penny from that
trip,” Dr. Pinner said.
