GRAND 'JURY DODGE COUNTY,
term, 1887.
The grand narovs tor ... the August
Term, 1887, of' Dodee Superior Court.
respectfully submit the following gen
oral presentments:
The county ofDodgo is in a prosper
ous condition : in point of population,
wealth, fine crops and public
quiiity, we stand second to none
this much favored section of Georgia,
Our public , roads thoiv
were not as
oughly examined as might be. Few
things contribute more largely to the
profit, comfort and pleasure oi the oil
izens than good, roads. They give evi
deuce of thrift and j rosp< l itv, demon
sIrate a high order of civilization, and
are a. standing invitation to
and population to cone and abide with
us. If we. hope to sue «'rv now sparse
districts peopled t»y the better class
whose presence J so desirable*, we
must show them good roads. Men of
energy ami thrift are not apt to locate
in a region whore -life and limb are
imperiled in plying their vocation
not to moidu n tnc - s »ustill tied i»v
broken vehicles and o\ ervorked
draught animals-—losses destructive to
the profits in products for market. ()ur
present progri ss in improving foad.
is too slow. The average man s pow¬
ers of endurance are not equal t. the
nigged highwa;. > be is now compelled
to travel over. The fad D, the Stale
is behind the age in the matter >f good
roads. <>itr road laws are either ii
udequat ? 1 or tin \' are not euf< re.it.
