Aiken’s Wild Magnolia War and a Mailman’s Odd Tale
In Aiken a late 1940s fight over magnolia trees along Richland Avenue and Park Avenue ended with the trees bulldozed after mercy stays expired. The tale highlights local wealth, court battles, and a daylight stand by Eulalie Salley to halt removals. A separate memory recalls Rudolph Busch delivering mail by bike with a coffin ashes box from a funeral home, a peculiarly ordinary moment in town life.

Fire and public safety crews evacuated the building and aired out the odor with high powered fans. Six employees were taken to Aiken Regional Medical Centers as a precaution.
