in the condemnation proceedings
brought by the Atlantic Coast Line

opposite the A. c. L. station. This
property is wanted by the railroad in
order that they may extend tracks at
this place. .
The proceedings took up most ell OF

Neill O'Donnell. w. F.. Shaw and Mrs.

these witnesses on the property wished
condemned by the railroad varied
greatly, some of the witnesses DEEM
ing it practically confiscation Of the
entire property, as there would be no
direct approach to it, in their judg-

1t would hurt the value Of the other
property owned by Mrs Dawes.
Neither side had given any notice

seems that both sides must be fairly
