COMPLAINING or THE SCHEDULE
Many Kicks Heard About the Through

Many Kicks Heard About the Through
Train on the A. G. 3.
The people Of Brunswick well ap.
preciate the fact that the Atlantic
and Birmingham railroad is willing
to do anything within its power for
the accommodation and convenience
of the people Of Brunswick. The
schedule of the road in the past has
been about all that could be desired
by a public, but a change was made
recently and the merchants and others
of this city are making serious
complaint.
1t is all occasioned by the through
train from Montezuma to Brunswick.
The train formerly arrived in Bruins
wick at 1.2G and left at 3, giving the
people along the line, it is true, only
short stay in the city, but under the
new change they are given almost too
long stay.
The train now leaves Montezuma
about noon, arriving in Brunswick at
8 O'Clock at night This is the only
train which brings passengers from
all stations along the line to Bruins
wick The train departs the following
morning at 6 o'clock, and therefore the
passengers are given no time to trans
act business in the city. If they de.

made a misstep and fell to the bottom
Of the hold, hitting heavily on his
head and back.
Members OF the crew either saw the

rushed to the assistance OF The injur-

ana removed to his quarters on the
bark.

too long for the average man to leave

If the A. & B. could arrange a

the city about the same hour at night
all would be satisfied Then passen-
