He stated that the- bur den oi the school work would always remain upon the shoul ders of the county Superinten dent, and that his work was m no sence to supplant or take the place of their work, but that his work was that of a helper.

Nevertheless they got, there and report that tney- nave never seen grander scenery m , western North Caro lina. Looking, down the Car ureeK valley you can see. the fine farming lands far beneath you. And while standing at the head of the falls you can see the ice cold water that has gathered from the pure mountain springs, leaping over the Redmond Falls and dashing down to -Dr. Free man's mill hundreds of feet be low. Just a few yards below the head of the Redmond Falls is the Redmond Cave in which many famous "blockaders" have taken refuge from the revenue men. Leaving the head of the falls they went out (with a fine grade) to Bonnie Belle and other noted places. Bonnie- Belle stands on the same plot of ground that old TT -rv uncle tfilly Mill's tent was pitched in the hot days - of the Kevolutionary war of 1776. Some of the best families of Hender son county are descendants of Billy Mills. Old . Uncle Billy knew where to go for safetv in the time of trouble. And when our new road is completed the "sickly" people of the Smith who are battling for health will flee to old Uncle Billy's camping grounds where ice is hot needed to make lemonade. Most any spring in that locality is cold just a few degrees above freez ing point In the Redmond gorge the surveyors had the pleasure to pass by and see the old furnace's where the old moonshiners . of by-gone days have made thou sands of gallons that would be tempting to a king of the pre sent day. Still higher up the gorge thev passed the lonely cabin, where one of Redmond's men died not being able to stand the hardships of a blockaders life, and was packed" out of the gorge by his companions on a rouerhlv made Iyer and laid to rest in the valley below. may our taithtul surveyors live to see the road comnleterl that they have tried so hard to ocate.
