Danville Railroad Company was taken up,
the question being on the passage of the
bill, its second reading.
Mr.. Siade spoke ct some length in ad-
vocacy of the bill, ccntendine that the
connection with Danville would greatly
enhance the revenue of the North Carroll
ma Railroad.
Mr. Kallum contended that the estab-
lishment If such road would seriously
effect the Rockingham and Coal Fields
Railroad, running through Rockingham
and Stokes.
Mr.. Galloway spoke in reply to Mr.
Kallum, md advocated the passage o. the
bill.
Mr. Bullock opposed the bill, and
thought that the road would only have the
effect to build up the State OF Virginia

sage of the charter of the North Carolina
