ALLIE DOUGLASS | The Sun Don Canter of Graves County is the first to drive over the newly rebuilt Leeder Bottoms Bridge in his 1930 Model A Ford on Thursday afternoon over Mayfield Creek on old U.S. 45. The original bridge being built in 1927, gave way in June of 2011 due to a combination of rain and existing scouring.
