Excerpt from The Annals of Newberry: In Two Parts The Appendix contains some account of the great flood of August, '52, the injury to the Greenville and Columbia Railroad, the memoir of Wil liam Spencer Brown, the Engineer who was drowned in it. These seemed to me to be germain to the history of Newberry, and well worth preserv ing. The sentence on Motley and Blackledge, and the notice of Gov. Johnson, and the letter of Mr. Pope, may be considered as matters which I was much interested in preserving.
