the hard surface west of Norlina by
was of Oine to the Virginia State
line. The board ordered that the
State Highway Commission be requested
to improve the River road
from Northampton county line r,o

Seven reasons for constructing

Avenue were set forth in the petition
of the Littleton citizens, as
follows:
1. The width of Mosby Avenue is
approximately seventy (70) feet
from curb to curb, and is a straight
line for its entire length. Furgerson
Street is approximately twenty (20)
feet in width, and is both hilly and
crooked.
2. Mosby Avenue has a ratio of
practically four to one in the value
of property adjacent thereto as
compared to Furgerson Street.
3. The High School building faces
said Avenue and thereon are all the
churches of said town except two

4. Mosby Avenue is the principal
and most beautiful residential street
of said town with 44 white families
thereon against ten white families
on Furgerson Street; two colored
families on Mosby Avenue against
18 colored families of Furgerson
Street.
The width of Mosby Avenue at
its intersection with Route No. 48

feet against a width of Furgerson
Street, at its intersection with said
Route, of about 30 feet.
6. Mosby Avenue has graded and
paved sidewalks for its entire length
on each side. Furgerson Street has
a paved sidewalk for about 1000 feet
(about one-seventh of its entire
length) on one side, and no side
walk at all for the rest of said side;
on the other, no paved walk and
only a dirt, ungraded path.
7. Furgerson Street runs along the
entire length of the play grounds
of Littleton High School; students
are not allowed to play on the
Mosby Avenue side.
