AUGUST 7, 1925: PALMYRA-MARION HIGHWAY STARTED. Work has begun on the Palmyra-Marion highway, to the great satisfaction of both towns. The road is closed at the half way point, the Brick School, work thus far being on the south end of the stretch. Marion tourists take on one of several routes in detouring to reach Palmyra, the two roads joining the main highway at the N.Y.C. depot, being open. People are willing to surmount difficulties if the state road from Marion to Palmyra is really in sight although it may not be finished this fall. We can tell you more later.
