The Deep Gap Tie and Lumber Company of this place is pushing their railroad to completion just as fast as they can, and by the time this is printed will perhaps have reached their goal on the last lap and link of the project near the Daniel Boone Trail Highway
. Mrs. Cordia Wellborn has been very much indisposed for several weeks, but we hope the good lady will soon improve to her normal health again.
There seems to be some “red eye” stuff going again on the highway and court is on the way, so the Wilkes traffic men had better keep their liquid in Wilkes if they want to be in a zone of safety.
It has been a season of rainy weather in this section, and it seems the crops have had an abundant supply of water and everybody is wanting to see Old Sol shine again.
Mr. C.M. Watson, patrolman of this section of the highway is doing some good work in the way of repairs, and will soon put a new coat of gravel in the weak places on the road.
