Perry has almost completed building a trail up Volunteer Mountain.  The building of the trail makes travel much easier and quicker, to and from the lookout tower on top of the mountain.  The trail on which Mr. Perry has done splendid work is being built by the Forest Service to enable the lookout who is stationed on the mountain during the summer months prior to the summer rains, to get to any fires that may be started, more quickly."   (Williams News)
