Want Right of Way Donated

Bristol, Va., Nov. 12 - Special - Farmers of Sullivan county, 
Tennessee will be asked to donate rights of way for the proposed 
Bristol and Kingsport railway a line of road that is badly needed 
through the county, and which would be of incalculable benefit to the 
numerous farmers who have for years been without a road which they 
could use in winter to bring their  products to market. Surveys for 
the new road will made at once. Former Governor Cox, who is president 
of the company, is very much interested in the project and will use 
his best efforts to give the county a road without delay.
