COMMITTEE REPORT
February 16, 1993
H. 3413
S. Printed 2/16/93--H.
Read the first time February 4, 1993.
To whom was referred a Concurrent Resolution (H. 3413), to request the State Highways and Public Transportation Commission to name the Saluda River Bridge, etc., respectfully
That they have duly and carefully considered the same, and recommend that the same do pass:
DEWITT WILLIAMS, for Committee.
TO REQUEST THE STATE HIGHWAYS AND PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION TO NAME THE SALUDA RIVER BRIDGE ON HIGHWAY 39 AT CHAPPELLS IN HONOR OF W. E. SPEARMAN, SR.
Whereas, W. E. Spearman, Sr., was a lifelong resident of Chappells, served on the Chappells Town Council for many years and during his life was a business and civic leader in Chappells as well as in Newberry and Saluda Counties; and
Whereas, for forty years he served as the Chappells Depot Manager at the railway station located just beneath the Saluda River Bridge on Highway 39; and
Whereas, his home which was located on the top of a surrounding hill gave him a clear view of this bridge and the town he loved so well; and
Whereas, after his death when the bridge needed to be rebuilt, part of his estate was sold to the State of South Carolina so that this could be accomplished; and
Whereas, the members of the General Assembly believe it would be a fitting tribute to this fine South Carolinian if this bridge was named in his honor. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:
That the members of the General Assembly hereby request the State Highways and Public Transportation Commission to name the Saluda River Bridge on Highway 39 at Chappells in honor of W. E. Spearman, Sr.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the State Highways and Public Transportation Commission.
