Commissioner McFarland, of Franklin County and a party of citizens consisting of Messrs, Robert William Neal, Thomas Leeland Carson, James Lumpkin Carson, William Palmer Carson, Claude Parks, William Henry Smith, George Adams and J.G. Tucker met with Messrs, Frank Wright, H.O. Williford, George Lumpkin Carson, Sr. and John B. Hardman of Commerce, Tuesday morning and walked over the proposed new route for upper Carnesville Road beginning at McKie's Hill and ending at Ashland.

The changes in the course of the road avoids all hills and it was agreed to follow the route viewed, which takes a westerly course at the top of hill referred to above coming back across the road near Mr. Tom Neal's place, crossing again near R.W. Neal's gin house, thence to Ashland.

Four parties will ask for a small sum of money for passing through their land and when this matter is agreed upon, eighteen convicts will commence the work of grading.

When the work is completed next Spring it will be possible to drive all the way from the original point on into Carnesville on a smooth road uninterrupted by heavy grades.
