DOnehOwer to be Freight Agent

The report sometime ago that
r. G. Donehower was to be trans
ferred from Aberdeen to Austin.
Mimi, proved to be unfounded
as will be seen by the following
item from the Aberdeen News of
last week:
r. G. Donehower, who was
transferred last April from local
freight agent to Superintendent
Gillick $ chief clerk will be re-
turned to his former duties as
freight agent commencing Dec
ember lst. This change is made
on account of the increased du-
ties that that position will involve
with the moving into the new
quarters.
