We are pleased to see our genial
cotton weigher Mr.. w. T. Gibson able
to be on the streets again:
We note that an effort is being
made to get the morning train on the
C..N. & T. q mail train. Really we
feel that something should be done
that will cause this train to make its
schedule better. We have known it to
take three hours or more to snail into
Columbia. By all means make it a
mail train and let it start from
at Z getting to Columbia
by II o'clock. This would be an ideal
schedule. "~
