around and the two men had climbed
into the cab and had him covered
with revolvers. They ordered him to
go ahead, and after getting just north

his engine.
They made him and his fireman get
down on the ground on the left side
of the engine. One of them stood
guard over them while the other look
ed after the others.
Conductor Damon went up to the
engine on the right side and was shot
at by one of the men and made to
go to the postal car and have the pos
tai clerks come out, the robbers
threatening to blow up the car if they
did not do so.
Ed Dozier, the colored porter, came
up shortly after this, and he was also
held up by the robbers. The engineer

engine and Farris was made to pull

bags. A large, stout man appeared
to be the leader.
The Atlantic Coast Line railway
has offered a reward of $500 for the
capture of the men who held up the
train.
