Evening Times (Cumberland, MD) September 25, 1907
The county road at the upper end of Douglas avenue is very much in need of 
repairs.  In wet weather a stream of water runs down the road, and it has 
washed out sections of it here and there.  When the gas men laid pipe under 
this road they piled the stones dug out in heaps along both sides of the 
road.  The next heavy rain made a mill race of the road and scattered the 
rocks all over it.  At present it is practically impassible in places.  The 
road directors might look at this piece of the road and do something with it.
