The Troubles Of an InexOTabIe
Creditor.


From the Boston GAEstte.l
Speaking OF the attachment of rail
road trains by deputy sheriffs just as the
hour arrives for their departure from the
depot (of which outrage there has been
at least two exhibitions lately Mr.. Su.
perintendent A. A. Folsom recalls an
instance wherein the game Of the officers
was effectually blocked. 1t occurred
during the administration of his prede-
cessor in the superintendency Of the
Boston aud Providence railroad. Just
as the morning shore line train was
about 10 leave, one of the creditors Of
the Boston and Stonington railroad
placed an attachment upon car be-
longing to that company, and located
in The middle Of the train. Mr.. Mason,
then Superintendent, requested that it
be vacated, but the creditor was inexors-
BILE. The dangers of delay we're ex-
planned, as was also the fact that a
hundred innocent people we're being
made to suffer for the wrong-doing of a
corporation, but all explanations we're
in vain, and the creditor continued stub
bornly to insist upon what he deemed
the maintenance of his legal rights.
Finally, after the train had been
delayed fifteen minutes, Superinten-
dent Mason hit upon bright idea
Very well, sir" be said, there is
your car. Take it out Of our depot"
What do you mean, sirP'
/" Just what say. exactly. You have

ton and Providence Railroad Company,

"All right, sir; I win do 50. just
start up your engine, and we'll take the
car out Of your way in a jiffy."
Not by COMPOUNDED sight The
car is in your charge, not mine, aud none
Of the property Of this company shall

you, too, that every moment you allow
