Bond issue powers debated for Shenandoah bridge project
The Legislature passed a bill authorizing two bond teams to build a Shenandoah River bridge in Charles Town district. It requires an election if petitioned, with three fifths voter approval needed. County Court may toll the bridge and appoint a toll keeper, no voter registration required. Separately, Susan V Hinke leases land to George W Johnson for limestone and dolomite mining with a one cent per ton royalty and quarterly payments, plus a lease option on adjoining land. Hancock officials drilled a water well costing 1200 dollars but a nearby sand company claimed the hill for its use, leaving Hancock with a hole in the ground but no reservoir. Charles F Teeter, notable West Virginia figure and former gubernatorial candidate, died at 53 in Philippi from erysipelas.
