On account of the burning Of mail
| car in the Southern yards Monday
| morning, no mail went from this point
towards Marion, N. c., Tuesday morn
ing. This may seem somewhat strange
| to those who fondly believe that Un-
poratlons which enter into contract
with him to transport the malls. Such
was the fact though. The people I'm
the postoffice here supposed that the
pouch for that line would so out at
$50 Tuesday morning, but were in
formed that there was no car to take
the place Of the one burned. This in
formation came too late to send the
| Yorkville mail by Chester and conse-
quently the mail from Rock Hill to
| Yorkville had to wait until 2.45 D. m.
This looks like pretty fine work, the
/ U. s. mails held up for thirty-two
hours on account Of the burning OF one
car.
