Motor Wagons Used Everywhere.

Progress in motor wagon application
is most apparent everywhere the waste
of horse transportation is most obvious.
Hence it was inevitable that the large
cities should be the theaters in which
mechanical haulage would be first and
most extensively demonstrated. But,
though this is precisely what has hap
pened, one is not justified in conclud
ing that the country at large has over,
looked the conspicuous economy of
motor wagons. The truth is, the en-
ployment of machines of all ratings is
quite general. But the buying capacity

For years the town had struggled
along in half-dead. half-alive fashion,
when. with the advent OF the Norfolk

cry OF the Luray Caverns. the town
took on new HE, and began to as

every time from many destructive con-

1875. when large portion of the
town lying west of the Hawksbll was

Bynum Carter Loses Life.

Bynum Carter, 20 years of age, was
killed at o'clock Saturday evening in
the switch yards at Rowland. About
three weeks ago Carter returned to his
home there after having spent several
years as an enlisted man in the regular
army, but had decided to go back again.
In order to say good bye to his brother
Capt. Walter Carter, who was in
charge of the freight, Bynum Carter
boarded the train and while it was still
in motion attempted to go back to the
caboose. In crossing from one car to
another he lost his footing and fell to
the track below. Eight cars passed
over the unfortunate man before the
train could be stopped and he was hor-
ribly mangled. One leg was cut off,
his hip was crushed to pulp and an
arm completely severed. Notwith-
standing these injuries, Carter lived an
hour and was conscious a greater part
of the time. The funeral services were
conducted by Rev. j. B. Jones Sunday
afternoon at the home of his mother in
Rowland, after which the remains were
laid to rest in Buffalo cemetery. In
terror Journal.
The unfortunate young man above
referred to was a native of this county.
He was son of the late James Carter
and half nephew of the late ]. B.
Carter, of Cartersville, for whom he
was named.
