We are glad to chronicle, what we have no reason to doubt is the fact, that capitalists of this and other places have become interested in this project to such an extent that its completion is a certainty. The success of this enterprise is mainly due to J. D. James, Esq., its President, who has labored long and faithfully. And to use his own words, success was doubtful—"so dark as to require a lantern when the sun was at meridian."
Mr. John Sill, the Secretary, duly appreciating the importance of this work, has stood by Mr. James faithfully, and to him must be credited much praise.
We understand that other parties have become interested in the project hereafter, but are not at liberty to communicate names at present. Suffice it to say that we know the parties to be gentlemen of character and wealth. The completion of this road will add much to the wealth and population of our Borough and County. Let us hope there may be no mistake.
