Dugan says.
The car on which Brown rode, as
reported in the Cincinnati Post. made
the round trip in a little over 23 days.
Tne car travelled IL miles per day. A
good man with a wheelbarrow, or

The distance from Rush Run to

The situation is not hopeless. A
little pressure by state or national
bodies having authority over public

worst delays are due to failure to
