On Satuhiay, November 3, a passen
ger on a Central avenue car proffer,
cd the conductor a $10 bill in payment
of his fare.
The Iwssenger was a young min who
was so ill that he could hardly stand.
The conductor coOld not have failed to
notice his condition.
But the rule of the company Is "no
change for more thun $2." The con
ductor followed the rule.
"You'll have to dig up u nickel or get
off the oar," he said.
The passenger was Marvin F. Free
man. of 3 Pulliam street. For years he
had been suffering from a disease which
bud undermined his strength. Every
day for weeks he had visited a physi
cian. Usually he hud taken a cab, but
for a few days past hud used the street
curs. ‘ • .
Saturday morning Mr. Freeman
started to his physician's office with
two $10 notes nnd live cents In change.
The nickel was spent on the first car.
When he boarded a Central avenue car
to return he had only the two notes.
One of these wns refused by .the
conductor, who stopped the ear at
Mitchell and Whitehall streets and or
dered tho sick man to get off. Mr.
Freeman left the car and made an at
tempt to walk to his home, live blocks
uway.
A neighbor saw Itim coming down the
street end ran to assist him. When lie
reached his home he was so 111 that he
returned to his bed and on Monday
a , pronounced case of paralysis, which
wns diagnosed as tubercular menin
gitis, had set In.
Young Freeman lost entire control of
hie limbs and In a short while lost
consciousness. He never recovered hie
faculties until his death on the follow
i nr Friday.
"There Is no doubt that the excite
ment and fatigue of the walk after be
ing put off the street car hastened his
death," sold the physician In charge.
Mr. Freeman's body was sent to his
old home In West Point, Ga., for Inter
ment last Saturday. He is survived by
three brothers, W. R. and George Free,
man, of Atlantu, and Capers Freeman,
of Columbus. He was well known In
the city, where he had lived for five
yean, having been bookkeeper for the
Arm of W. P. Pattlllo.
Asheville, N. C., Nov. 12.—George W.
Vanderbilt and his family, while at

crowds of sightseers. The Rev. Rod

blit's All Soule church, endowed and
kept up by Mr. Vanderbilt, took or
caslon to protest against this evil, a*
well as others, from hie pulpit at the
morning services Sunday.
Dr. Swope did not mince matters.
There were soma things he was tired
of, and he did not propose to tolerate
them, he said. One thing, he did not
propose to be annoyed by his congre
gation coming Into the church at all
hours, as they had been doing. An
other was the sightseers. Dr. Swope
said:
, "1 want you to understand that this
Is not a show place, but a house of
worship."
The church Is small, though very
pretty. Hundreds of visitors to Ashe
ville go to All Souls church every Sun
day. and tho Vanderbilts are the sub
jects of the curious crowds of specta
tors who come to see the sight*.
