Marietta and Shawnee Railroad financing urged in Athens press
The Marietta and Shawnee Railroad project is urged with a $30,000 security plan. Marietta and Washington County would lend at 7 percent for a mortgage on the line from Big Run to Shawnee, backed by bonds at par. The piece stresses regional benefits, such as coal and iron access to water transport, downstream dock growth, and related shipbuilding and river activity. It credits Mr. Cutler with bringing opportunity and urges public support to awaken local demand and related industry growth.
