ful car at . O'Clock and arrived in Monroe
| next morning at 5 o'clock and intended
to stay over and go to church ana ruminate
| upon heavenly things. including my wife and
| chlltiren and then take the night train for
! wilmington. After breakfast | Just acct
uehtaily asked the landlord what time does
