pouch closes at $50 p. IN. AS these
trains are liable to be somewhat irreg-
ular as to schedule as is the custom of
mixed trains the office will remain
open at night a reasonable length of time
after the stated hours whenever need
arises from the l~ateness of the north
bound train, which brings the principal

meet with any afternoon trains.
