Gazette
HappyBirthday!
It’shard tobelieve, but
theBearCreek andSouth
Jackson railroad, at least the

isnow 10years old!
SaidHoraceFithers, unof-
ficial spokesmanof the
crowdgathered at theSouth
JacksonTavern to celebrate
the railroad’s birthday, “Well
yaknow, I’m tickledpink
our railroadhas achieved
some longitivity.We’re all
hopin’ that it continues
on fer agood long spell,
too. Fact is,weprobably
wouldn’t knowwhattado
withourselveswithout the
railroad.Mr. Comstock, he
alwaysdone right byus and
we ‘preciate it!”
Others in the tavernwere
quick toagreewithHorace
andevenquicker tohelp
themselves tomore cakeand
goodies.
Mr. Comstock, BC&SJ super-
intendent of nearly every-
thing, commented, “I’m
deeply touched. Building a
railroadhasn’t always been
easy– therehavebeen some
hard timeswhen itwasn’t
runningdue to construc-
tion. But they’ve always,well
almost always,workedwith
us topush the rails through.”
It appears the railroad is
hoping to complete local
