A new time card went into effect
last Monday morning on the branch
We now have two trains day one uI
and one down. The south bound
train leaves McHenry at 8 a. M, ar.
irving at Cooperstown at 1890 and re-
manning here until 1915 when il
leaves for Sanborn arriving at that
place at 4:1O. Coming north the train
leaves Sanborn at 1915 arriving al
Cooperstown at Ills and leaves fol
McHenry at 2:15 arriving at that
place at 4;1O. The mails close at fol.
] lows: Going south at 11:4O a. m.
going north at. Ills p. m. The
new card is fair so far as connec.
tions at Sanborn are concerned but SC
far as the mail is concerned it is bum
and not adequate to the services de-
manded by the people along the
branch. Business men have no chance
to answer mail now until the day
after it is received. The probabilities
are that the mail from the south will
be late as usual during the busy sea
, son which cannot be helped on account
of the heavy work to be done by the
, train crew. What this line is entitled
to is regular passenger and mai
service and if all the towns united We
believe it could be secured. We will
never get it until we 60 after it right
