Several Daltonians were down
to see the Southern’s northbound
passenger train pass on last Mon
day evening. Some were there
to tell departing friends good bye,
others to welcome the return of
those who had been away.
The train was nearly an hour
late, but those in waiting did not
know the cause of the delay at
the time.

a trestle twenty feet high. The
train was going at a high rate of
speed, and Engineer Lewis did
not see that the trestle was a mass
of flames until too late to reverse
his engine. With rare presence

The sermon by Rev. R. Heber
Hoskins at the Episcopal church
last Sunday night was one of the
finest ever delivered within the
sacred walls of that church, -c The
concise and plain manner in which
he preaches make his sermons
doubly interesting, and the truths
which he utters the more lasting.
Indeed all Dalton is sorry that this
good man has been called else
where, and will soon take his de
parture.
