We’ll Walk Through the Mountain

Description

Walter C. Lyman had taken Vet Bradford to the Blue mountain and showed him the markers for the tunnel before his death in 1943. Lyman’s son Marvin wanted to see his father’s dream of the tunnel being completed so he and Vet, and local construction workers, took out a contract to dig through. On account of hard rock and money, they were forced to surrender for a whilst. Alternatively, they wanted to see it completed, so they later took out another contract to finish the tunnel. Both men put all of the money they had into the project and financially were doing badly, whilst most people in Blanding were making more money than ever before. Among the men working for them quit because they could make more money working somewhere else. The men who stayed did so because they wanted to help relatively than get rich. Despite these problems, Bradford kept the work going on both ends of the tunnel. “Whenever I thought of the project, it seemed insurmountable, but I knew what would be accomplished was once what was once attempted and I concentrated on at some point’s work at a time.” Marvin handled the finances whilst Vet and his crew built the tunnel. This is their story.
