Title A name given to the resource Rooster Bridge in Demopolis, 1919 Subject The topic of the resource Bridges Wilson, Woodrow, 1856-1924 Tombigbee River (Miss. and Ala.) Description An account of the resource Frank I. Derby, organizer of the 1919 Rooster Auction in Demopolis, Ala., accepts a rooster from President Woodrow Wilson. Derby is holding the rooster on a tray. The auction was held to raise money to build a bridge spanning the Tombigbee River. The Dixie Overland Highway Association was looking to complete a major road from Savannah, Ga., to San Diego, California,. The only spot along the route without a bridge was between Marengo and Sumter counties; a ferry connected them. Derby came up with the idea for a rooster auction to raise money for the bridge. At that time cock fighting was both legal and popular. Calling on politicians and businessmen, and working with others in both counties, Derby organized the famous two-day event. Working with Alabama's senator, they convinced President Woodrow Wilson and the prime minister of France, Georges Clemenceau; Great Britain's David Lloyd George, and Vittoria Orlando of Italy to donate roosters. Roosters were also donated by Gen. John J. Pershing and Hollywood personalities Roscoe "Fatty" Arbuckle, and Mary Pickford. Helen Keller sent a little blue hen. A rooster named "Bob Jones", which served as a model for auction publicity, was named for the famous evangelist. It sold for $7,500. Some buyers donated their roosters back again to be resold. The two-day event featured the largest barbecue and Brunswick stew dinner ever held in Alabama. The state legislature closed up shop, and all the politicians came to Demopolis. Trains carried folks from all over to the small West Alabama city. The sale raised enough in pledges to build the bridge, but not all the money was collected. The auction raised awareness that a bridge was needed, and the state came through. With local, state and federal money, the bridge was built. The bridge was named "Memorial Bridge," although no one in the area ever called it that. Everyone always referred to it as the "Rooster Bridge." Finally, under Congressman E.O. Eddins, the name was officially changed to the Demopolis Rooster Bridge honoring R.I. Derby. (Information provided by Patsy Derby Chaney, daughter of R.I.

Title A name given to the resource Opening of Lock 17, 1915 Subject The topic of the resource Locks (Hydraulic engineering) Dams Black Warrior River (Ala.) Description An account of the resource The opening and dedication of Lock 17 on the Black Warrior River was the occasion for celebration. <br /><br />“Steamers came up from Mobile bring(ing) visitors for the opening ceremony. They came with visitors already on board and picked up more along the way, some waiting at Riverview, to be taken to the lock. Many distinguished guests were among the visitors.  Promptly at 8:30 in the morning a fleet composed of the John Quill, Myrtle, McCalla, Gold Bug and the Alabama and New Orleans Transportation Company’s Barge No. 2, left Riverview for the lock carrying as many as 1,000 people. <br /><br />The address of welcome was made by Judge W.W. Brandon and responded to by Col. Harry Taylor of the U.S. board of engineers. The group was addressed by Congressman W.B. Oliver of Tuscaloosa, Hon. William B. Bankhead of Jasper, U.S. Sen. John Hollis Bankhead, Hon. John T. Cochrane of Mobile and U.S. Sen. Oscar W. Underwood. The speakers extolled the virtues of Tuscaloosa and its historical significance, the hospitality of Tuscaloosans, and rejoiced in the anticipated industrial development that the opening of the river would allow.“ <br /><br />To develop the coal industries of central Alabama, the US federal government in the 1880s began building a system of dressed rock lock and dams that concluded with 17 impoundments. In 1915, Lock 17, also known as John H. Bankhead Lock and Dam, was completed, being the only one of 17 impoundments constructed of concrete. Of the original dams, only Lock 17 remains. The lock and dam system made the Black Warrior River navigable along its entire course and it is one of the longest channelized waterways in the United States forming part of the extended system that links the Gulf of Mexico to Birmingham, Alabama.
