Carrollton, Carroll Co., Georgia NEWSPAPER Issue of Friday, JANUARY 13, 1882 NEIGHBORHOOD News Last Tuesday, a man named Knowles and his family came near being drowned in the Chattahoochee at Campbelltown Ferry. They were in a wagon and when they started to drive into the flat, the chain broke and the flat shot forward and mules, wagon and all were pulled into the river. The water is about ten feet deep at that place and if it had not been for the efforts of Mr. J.B. Woodall, the whole family and the mules would have been drowned, but he saved them all.
