Some couple of years 01 more, ago,
some of the competitors of the West
ern and Atlantic Railroad endeavored
to make capital with the fruit pro
ducers in Florida and south Georgia
by advertising that they would run
freight trains on Sunday, and thus
save 24 hours in the time of the deliv
ery of the fruit in the northwestern
markets, as compared with the ship
ments which would be sent, via the
Western and Atlantic Railroad.
The Western and Atlantic people,
THE GREAT KENNESAW ROUTE GAZETTE.
however, did not shirk the issue; but
conspicuously and extensively adver
tised in all the southern fruit stations
and the northwestern markets that
they would not run freight trains on Sun
day, and that such business as parties
wished to send on Sunday they would
have to send via other lines than the
Western and Atlantic, as its manage
ment did not believe it was scriptural
ly or otherwise right to perform this
service on Sundays.
When the season ended it was found
WESTERN 4ATLANTICR.R.
THE GREAT
KENNESAWJiOUTE.
CONDENSED SCHEDULES BETWEEN
ATLANTA anti BOSTON, NEW YORK and the EAST.
