A Nice Addition

November 22, 2017 by Reno

You say you like history? How about the history of “Broad River” music (as Ben Humphries calls it), about the musicians who lived among us a long time ago, who passed along their style of playing to the likes of Earl Scruggs. Read Bob Carlin’s Roots of Earl and Snuffy: Searching for the Banjo Along the North/South Carolina Border in  History » Articles. And at the bottom of the “About the Author” page there’s a nice video of John Hartford’s “The Boys from North Carolina.”

The Cliffside Clock Tower

Our town clock was installed in 1920, and for over half a century tolled the quarter hours from atop the R. R. Haynes Memorial Building. When the building was razed in the late 1970s this new tower for the old timepiece was erected on the site of Mr. Haynes' original Cliffside home. Although the property of the county, the Cliffside Historical Society has assumed responsibility for maintaining this beloved antique.
