The catalpa trees shed the beans and stand there like they were dead until theonly sister he had.We are so glad a nice hard road goes out past this place. We have had such hard storms and the dirt roads have the top soil washed off badly and stones stick up. That missing link is getting shorter, then it will meet when finished .with the hard roads going on out through Black Forest, also connects with the road coming up from Water-ville to Haneyville at Aspers.Speaking of roads, we were up to what is called “Summerson Mountain.” We went up to visit the Rathmells, That really is a mountain for about two miles, then after you get up on flat ground you could farm and not see a stone.
