What Is believed to have been an at
tempt to wreck the fast passenger train.
the Cavalier. eastbound on the Norfolk
& Western Railway, 10 miles west of
here, was frustrated by passing motor
ist from North Carolina, but whose iden-
tity has not been learned here. The
'rotorist reported to Towerman A. l..
Farmer, at Forest. that he had seen a
man at work on the railway mile and
a half east Of Forest. This caused the
train to be detoured to Lynchburg over
the belt line, causing 1t to be 20 minutes
late reaching the Union station.
The attempt was made shortly after
1880 o'clock, and is thought to have
been directed against the Cavalier,
which usually handles large week end
crowds.
The motorist said he saw a car
parked on the bridge over the railway
and stopped and asked II he could give
assistance. Then a pistol was drawn
on him and he was told to turn his
car around and drive away. He then
drove back TO Forest and gave the alarm.
1t is stated that two bolts we're re-
moved from an angle plate and that the
plate had been partly loosened. Two
heavy metal bars and a wrench were
found lying beside the track.
This train was the only one de-
toured around the location. others
