Interurban Pays Road Assessments for Marmet Road Right of Way
The Charleston Interurban Railroad pays 20 515.50 to the county court for its share of right of way costs on the Marmet road. The court will pass the funds to the road commission which financed the rights of way during the Gore arbitration. Gore split the case into three equal parts and the interurban will receive a 4 220 refund for moves to accommodate trolley and road construction economies. The state later took over the Marmet Road as a state highway demanding a wider right of way, with costs assessed against both companies. The court also announced a separate out of court settlement with River Homes corporation for 5 000, netting 4 700 credit or 200 for fencing expenses tied to a one mile concrete road between Kanawha.
