letters which he has received
""from Col. Harvey, . President of
the Ozark Trails. Mr. Harvey in
one of his communications says;
•'If your road (meaning the ro.ul
from Tulsa, via Guthrie to Geary)
is equally as good as any of the
other proposed route, you will
get the trail as the route is
twenty four miles shorter " Mr.
Harvey also advised that he
would make a trip of inspection
over this route in about thirty
days in order to see how enthusi
astic the people were regarding
the trail.
Mr. Wenner said that the
people of Guthrie had raised eigh-
teen hundred dollars which they
would expend on the road from
Guthrie t) Cashion providing the
people along the route would
raise a like^amount. In the fiist
heat Navina showed her disposi
. tion to raise that much or more,
and it is assured that work on the
proposed route will commence
within the next few days
