The following news item appeared
in Meyersdale Republican last week
and is good news to all residents of
this locality: "The old bonneville
Trolley (P. & M. Ry.) ceased opera
ton July 31st, but the former patrons
of the rattly old street cars now have
a more prompt and comfortable means
of transportation.
"The Somerset Bus company, W. l..
Morrison, of Somerset, proprietor, last
Thursday began operating auto
busses between Meyersdale and
Salisbury in place of the bonneville
Trolley. Not only to and from Sails
bury, but as far southwark and west
ward as Springs at the end of the fine

contract, which is to be completed
before winter sets in. 1t is said the
State of Maryland will also build it's

places are patronizing the bus line.
