Might Crowds in South Carolina Be Chanting "Build That Fence, Build That Fence!, April 9, 1919

From The Independent, Elizabeth City N.C., Friday, April 9, 1919

The new state-wide stock law lately passed by the legislature of South Carolina is the cause of a serious and puzzling dilemma to the citizens of Columbus and other North Carolina counties bordering on the Palmetto State which do not have no-fence laws. Notification has been given to the farmers of Columbus county that if they wish to continue to let their stock have free range, they must build a fence between the two States, from one end of their county to the other, a distance of 50 miles.
