Benwood wants a station and should
have one The B. & 0. company has been
properly notified by law twice to erect
station, and will, I'VE understand, be fined
500 per month until the station is erected.
1t is said that the law requires station at
any town of 800 inhabitants. Benwoed has
1900 Inhabitants, over seven times
the number required and why should
they not have one? They have neither
passenger, freight, telegraph or express
station nearer than Bellaire. Freight is
put off on the platform, C.ll they have)
and if the owner of the said freight is not
there at the time the said freight arrives it
is allowed to remain whether good or bad
weather. Awful!
