that 'there is no longer any doubt that the

and st. Louis" That the right of way for
the road has been purchased for direct line
to Alma, at cost Of $4,000 and that the
right of way through Alma will cost about
$40, 900. And that "a gang of men are
now at work completing surveys for the new
line through Alma. The present D., l.. &
N. depot will be moved across the track and
converted into union depot. BY the
terms of the agreement A. w. Wright will
pay the T. & A. $1,000 and the citizens of
Alma $1,000. The intentions of the D., l..
& n. company in reference to the SIX or
seven miles of track remaining, can not be
definitely learned, but there are very strong
indications that it will be taken up and
Ithaca have but one railroad, with the depot
