TO REQUEST THAT THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION NAME THE PORTION OF SOUTH CAROLINA HIGHWAY 5 IN YORK COUNTY FROM ITS INTERSECTION WITH UNITED STATES HIGHWAY 321 TO THE YORK-CHEROKEE COUNTY LINE THE "REPRESENTATIVE A. L. BLACK HIGHWAY" AND ERECT APPROPRIATE MARKERS OR SIGNS ALONG THIS PORTION OF HIGHWAY THAT CONTAIN THE WORDS "REPRESENTATIVE A. L. BLACK HIGHWAY".

Whereas, the Honorable Arthur Lindsay Black was born on December 13, 1876, and died on November 14, 1941. He was the son of Robert and Margaret Scoggins Black; and

Whereas, he served in the South Carolina House of Representatives from the late 1930's until his tragic death in 1941; and

Whereas, Mr. Black played an instrumental role in establishing his family's peach farming business in 1923. Today, Black's Peaches is renowned for offering their customers "the freshest and tastiest peaches imaginable"; and

Whereas, Mr. Black served as a township commissioner and a trustee in the Cotton Belt School; and

Whereas, it would be fitting and proper to name a portion of South Carolina Highways in York County in honor of Representative Arthur Lindsay Black as a lasting memorial to his many contributions to York County and the people of South Carolina. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:

That the members of the General Assembly request that the Department of Transportation name the portion of South Carolina Highway 5 in York County from its intersection with United States Highway 321 to the York-Cherokee County line the "Representative A. L. Black Highway" and erect appropriate markers or signs along this portion of highway that contain the words "Representative A. L. Black Highway".
