[edit] Changes to article 4/21/2007

I rewrote the intro, with a better description of Tuckaleechee Cove and its relation to the city of Townsend. Other changes:

1. Removed the statement regarding Cartwright's. I couldn't find a source, and without a published source, the statement could be considered libelous.

2. Added a more extensive history section detailing the town's Cherokee history and its history as a logging camp.

3. Added a more detailed description of US-321 as it passes through Townsend.

The article also needs a better source for the two THC marker citations.
