GoEDoNsvnrr. December 10. 1899
The Fire Department are in possession of
handsome hOok-and-ludder truck. with
rubber buckets and the necessary tools,
aud are expecting hose-rtcl cart and five
hundred feet Of hose, which have been
purchased for this department. With
these in the hands Of our fire company,
composed OF about fifty men, many of
whom are leading citizens. with some prac-
teal experience as iircmen, and with the
frc-hydrdnts at intervals Of few hundred

Insurance must 90 down, and 1t ought to.
RAILROAD JUNCTION.
The reference IN my last letter publish
ed last Sunday As 10 the importance OF this
rs a junction point for railroads seems to
be verified IN stronger sense than when
1t was written. Ii now appears upon what
seems 10 be reliable information that the
Orange and Keysville road ga Farmville
has become fixed fact, and that the
money has been secured 10 construct and
equip 1t 10 this place upon first mortgage
bonds and that IL VIII be connecting
link in q system of roads from Washington
South, and that the distance between Ka-
leigh, y. c., aud the capital of the United
States will be shortened moro than seven
ty mIles. Thus II will be seen that II is
necessity III THIS age OF faSt travel ana Will
pay handsomely on the investment of the
money. A party Of engineers have about
completed a survey from or near Quantico
for road tapping the Pennsylvania sys-
tenn AT or near that point and connecting
with the Che sapeake and OHIO road at this
place thereby giving us shorter and
more direct line North several miles IN
its favor over other lines; therefore il is
again a necessity and will also pay the
stockholders az other important links in
big syndicatcs do.
The town is evidently on the eve of big
boom.
