Hinsdale People Again Talking Railroad

Hinsdale People Again Talking Railroad
After having almost forgotten the sub
ject OF new railroad Hinsdale people
were agUeeRby surprised last week to
know that the Boston K Maine had at last
done something decisive relative to build.
ing the much talked OF line between South
Vernon and Brattleboro on this side Of the
river The company has for some time
held options on the real estate along the
surveyed route and last Friday began clos
ing the deals, five deeds being taken at
the cost of $50 600.
On SATURDAY several more purchases
were made and practically all the land
along the route is now owned by the rail
road. \ few of the options had expired but
by liberal increase on the original price
the sales We're easily effected. In all in
stances the sums paid were extremely
high and very satisfactory to the land own
ers. 1t Is unfortunate that the beautiful
buildings at H II. Dole's will have to be
removed as will the old river tavern. as the
railroad is To pass directly over the site
now occupied by the building Mr.. Dole
must vacate his buildings in go days. while
\, A. Bodt must move his barn in 80
days. Thus it would seem that work on
the new road will soon begin. and accord
ing to Engineer G NJ. Tompson. contracts
for the entire work can be awarded in a
very short time and the work could con
tinue right through the winter on the
bridges and the deep cuts
