Misunderstanding Over Graham Road Work Cleared Up
A Graham road meeting in the mayor's office cleared up disagreements between contractors, county and town authorities. Contractor Hart claimed he was forced to move his plant due to unready bridges and grades. Mayor Sexton and council members clarified the situation. The involved parties expect grading to resume in east Graham and macadam work from west to east to continue, with contractors likely to hire crews within days, while residents are urged to watch progress. Local public accountant noted political tensions and the likelihood of a split, with Pryan unattractive to many Democrats though Clark or Wilson could be acceptable. rumors on Hartean's nomination suggested a tough path to victory amid GOP activity. Berries offer quick wealth. J. W. Leedy reports one quarter-acre yielding 403 gallons of strawberries sold at fifty cents per gallon, signaling strong local demand and urging work in the garden over high living costs.
