Now that there is q town named Trilby down

nothing but Svcnguli, Svcngali, Svcngali.
The founding and the naming OF this town are
part of a good story. 1t seems that II. b. Plant,
the millionaire, who owns all the railroads on
the western side of Florida, was called on TO
name the new town which he caused TO have
built at the crossing Of two Of his railroads.
There had been n station there before the
new town was started, and it had been called
Macon. When it was decided 10 cut down the
grade of the railroad at that point the old station
house, which was about all there was TO tho old
town Of Macon, was left standing high upon the
bluff. 1t had to be torn down. as il was OF no uso
in its lofty altitude above tho track. When the
old building was demolished the death kncll of
Macon, Fla, was sounded. and then the qucs-
ton was asked Mr.. Plant, the railroad Prcsi-
dent, What shall we name the new town.

which was in full frenzy, just at that time. Real
