State vs David B Everitt
Road
Wit Geo W Collier

State of North Carolina
Wayne County
Court of Pleas and Quarter Sessions
November Term 1856
The Jurors for the State on their oath present that on the first day of August 
eighteen hundred and fifty six there was and from thence hitherto hath been and 
still is in the county of Wayne a certain common and public highway leading from 
Waynesboro towards and unto Everettsville for all the citizens of the state to 
go, return, pass, re-pass, ride and labor with their horses, carts and carriages 
in and along the same at their free will and pleasure; and that on the day 
aforesaid the said highway was and yet is very ruinous, narrow, miry, broken and 
in great decay, for want of due and necessary amendment and reparation thereof, 
so that the citizens aforesaid could not during the time aforesaid, in and along 
the said highway, with their horses, carts and carriages go, return, pass, ride 
and labor without danger to themselves and the loss of their goods, and during 
all the said time David B Everitt was overseer of the said highway and did then 
and there unlawfully and negligently omit to amend and repair the same, contrary 
to the form of the Statute in such case made and provided and against the peace 
and dignity of the State.
Eli W Hall, Solicitor
