Anotherninety-degree curve of 20 foot radius is then madeafter passing over the roof of a building, on therocky ledge of the river bank, and thence the track iscarried across the river, on a splendid steel bridge,erected under the most difficult conditions, into thethird floor of the new mill. On the level this portion of the track is supportedby A bents 35 feet above the ground, resting on con-crete foundations. Along the cliffs the supportsconsist of huge vertical posts of Georgia pine, 14inches square, varying in length from 30 to 40
