RIrJ:enSoire Timely Suggestions a:, to.
Bridges Along Fublic Highway:.
Editor County Recent:?
Will the county have to pay for ;
^Ihat horse that fell in at tin little
bridge at Paisley swamp and was
drowned? J heard tiiai he hone
backed the buggy oif the brioone
of the negroes had a nanow escape
with his life. It is a little bridge!
. I
but ?omeboilv said the water was 8 ft
deep. I do not remember even if it |
had any hand rails. And right j
here let me say to our comity coin-j
missioners to always have, in evei v
bridge hereafter repaired or con-!
Structed, a line of 1<> or 12 inch'
plank securely nailed to the .'.usidej
of the band rail post, half way fioni
the top railing to the floor of thej
bridge, which is about the height of
the wheel hubs. It will prevent
the hubs from striking the post, and
give confidence to the horses and
safety to the riders; also strong rail

dangerous | hue. But don't, don't
do like Marion county did in Pee
*
Dee swamp. She made a long bridge)
across a wide lake and made it only j
10 ft wide. One of my mules tried
to back a buggy otf it once, and ir j
ruiued a yoke of oxen for a Mr Powv ;
ell and made my mules foolish about
crossing other biidges. But liny,
crossed the Johnson Ferry l.ridire;
very well, because it has that line of!
plank nailed to the inner side of the;
hand rail post half way down, ami;
also because it is 32 fr. wide?11
would be better.
Another word to the supervisor: A
horse, driven bv some ladies. g<d
fust in a hole m the bridge floor of
the Johnson Ferry biidgo and rc j
maiued there until some help could j
be Secured to get him out?each
overseer should be required to put
a floor olutik in every li*tie bridge '
1? when
needed, uud big bridge too,
nutil they can be let for repairs.
Our little Stony Run bridge has a
broken plank and a hole, and I don't
believe the Socket bridge h is been
repaired. I call it dangerous. The!
cap ut the western end is rotten, and !
giving way, I was afraid to drive my
buggy over it the other day to get'
back to Possum Fokk.
