LEON RIVER BRIDGE

Bridge

It appears that workers are strengthening or replacing the railroad’s old Leon River Bridge.  The photo was probably made around 1917 as a similar photo was included in a high school album belonging to Lula Mae Smith Stone who graduated in 1918.  Her future husband, J.O. Stone is the first man to the right of the cement mixer and he would have been 21 if the photo was made in 1917.
