Road may have thasconfdence 10 com
init its destiny to the observance of the
Sabbath il Christian country"
We take the above extract from an
article in the Wilmington Commercial.
The Editor, who is generally "well
posted" in most matters, seems now to
be al fault. lie says the North Caro-.
lima Railroad Company would "become
the pioneer in a noble movement" If
they had adopted a resolution to dis
continue Sunday work. Does the Ed
itor not know that the Charlotte and
South Carolina Railroad adopted re-
solution several years ago to stop the
running Of the cars on the Sabbath !
III he does not, we can tell him that as
soon as the road was completed to
Winnsborolgh, which is at least five
years ago, the Stockholders did adopt
d resolution stopping all Sunday work.
except such as is necessary, and this
resolution is still in force, and as far as
the North Carolina Stockholders are
concerned, it never will be rescinded
unless necessity should arise for its
being abrogated. We hope the Editor
will do our Company justice by stating
that the Charlotte and South Carolina
Railroad is the pioneer road in the
observance Of the Sabbath in a Chris
tian country" NC. Wing.
