The derision concludes by saying that he court cannot direct the men tion of the road and has no djsposi v.ioii to hinder or delay construct a n of the important link and therefor • it is modified ns to the Iredell coun ty portion. The decision is taken to mean that | it is permanent. That the road as proposed by the highway commission along the route known ns the “yellow line” cannot be under the jurisdiction of Superior court, and is in violation 1 of the State road law. The lone procedure, it seems, open j to the highway commission is the ri - | sort to Supreme court, or the chuug 1 ing of the proposed route as it en | ,<•!• s Newton so that it would come i under the proper “connection of ri unty-seats” as interpreted by Judge Webb.
