DEATH OF PRESI.
DENT EMERSON

We learn with sincere re?ret OF
the sudden death at his home in
! Wilmington, n. c., of Thomas NJ !.
! Emerson, president of the Atlantic
Coast Line Railway company. Mr..
Emerson died sudd.niy of acute in
dl"estion just after returning from
an inspection of the road, and his
death is great shock, for he was
, in the prime of life and high use
fulness and was man of robust
health until few Gays before the
end came.
Like nearly all of our great rail-
readers, Mr.. Emerson started at the
bottom and won his way to the top
by sheer force of ability and merit.
A native of Ohio, his railroad work
had been confined to the South for
nearly forty years and for five years
past he had been at the head of the
htlantic Coast Line. His admins
tration of that system was marked
By both conservatism and progress
and his well-dirccted efforts had
done much to build up and standard
ize the system.
