A railroad is being opened from
Live Oak to Valdosta; it crosses
the Suwanee near the Duncan
place, and will run in a bee line
to West Lake, through a fine tim

suspected by some that the Sea
board Air Line company is behind
the movement, engineered, to all
outward appearances, by wealthy
and enterprising mill owners. It
will prove a great convenience to
the people to have a direct line of
railway from Valdosta to Jackson
ville.
