STORIES OF PEOPLE WHO NEVER
SAW A. TRAIN.


New Bern, n. c.. Nov. 12.-It seems
hardly credible that people are living
who have never seen locomotive,
train or railroad track. There are
some of them still alive If the following
instances are true:
One day last week three men came in
bridge, and in walking round town
tory. Here they saw the a. & n. c..
track that runs to the river. They in
CURED what the thing was and We're
Informed. They said they had never
seen a railroad track before Just then
one OF the switch engines came in
sight. bearing down upon them at a
good rate. Without asking any fur
Their questions. all three took TO their
heels and disappeared up the street.
A rev days ago an old citizen came
TO Polocksville somewhere out of the
wilds OF Jones or Onslow county. He
was nearing GO years of age. He stated
that he had never in his life seen a
train of cars.
Near Goldsboro lives an estimable
old lady. now nearly 10 years of age.
She has lived all her life only about
four miles from the place. When the
wind was favorable the sound of the
engine whistle and rumble of the cars
could be plainly heard, yet she never
had sufficient curiosity "to see the
wheels go round" A few weeks ago
nm unusual event took her to Goldsboro
and there for the first time she saw
railway trains speeding on their way.
