Source-derived summary

Route 113 is a highway in northwestern Missouri. Its northern terminus is at U.S. Route 136 in Burlington Junction; its southern terminus is at U.S. Route 59 east of Mound City.

Route description

Beginning at the southern terminus with US 59 in Holt County, the highway travels approximately 5 miles (8.0 km) east and curves northward at its intersection with Route B, which is historically known as Campbell Corner. Continuing north, the highway travels 5 miles (8.0 km) then intersects with Route A and Route C, where Maitland lies just east. Continuing another 4 miles (6.4 km), the highway crosses into Nodaway County, and an additional mile later, the road curves northeast where the highway crosses the Nodaway River.

Immediately after, it reverts to north and comes into Skidmore where it junctions with Route D at the town center. After a right turn at a stop sign, the highway travels east through the town and curves northward after exiting Skidmore, where it intersects with Route V. Thereafter, it crosses Florida Creek after 2 miles (3.2 km); 2 miles (3.2 km) further, it intersects with Route 46. Then it travels north-northwest almost 2 miles (3.2 km) until it passes through the now unincorporated community of Quitman. After a large sweeping right and then left curve, the highway continues north about 3.5 miles (5.6 km) to its northern terminus in Burlington Junction with US 136.

Editorial reviewA concise reference frame for defining the subject, testing terminology and identifying the institution closest to the evidence. The current 233-word lead offers orientation but no explicit four-digit date, so chronology should not be assumed. The selected authority fields contribute no independent date. Its value is orientation rather than verdict, with Missouri, Route and highway providing the first useful test.
