houses implanted and dismal, were

"Yaas, but jest wait and yell see

The train stopped. They looked out
and saw a rail missing ahead. The en-
tire train crew clambered out, crow
bars in hand. proceeded ~leisurely to the

ened a rail and carried it forward. Il
was spiked into position and the tram
proceeded.
