The D. & H. are considering the ad
visibility of running a special express
from Wilkes-Barre to Albany, leaving
Wilkes-Barre early in the morning, and
stopping only at Scranton, Carbondale

business men, and would be of special
advantage for the through trip to AL
bany to people in this vicinity who can
get up in time for the 6:55 trip to Car
bondale.
