the line a freight wreck that piled up
scores OF cars in n confused heap in u
cutting, thus completely barring the
main line.
"The local authorities were beside
themselves, for they could not figure
out how the wreck could be cleared
away and the line reopened In less than
two weeks, At this juncture Scott ar
rived ON the scene and after n survey
OF the wreck sent for n great quantity
of coal oil, with which he had the pile
thoroughly drenched. 1t was then
touched OF, and the god of flre soon
removed all trace of 1t, and traffic was
resumed on the line in "a hours.
"A bridge fell, and 1t was feared a
long delay must !ensue, but Scott put
more than 2.000 men 10 work on that
one structure and thus eliminated the
question of delay, Those We're the
days when such things counted and
were not only possible. but necessary
