I-ant member of the family | to serve the rail company is Capt. j T. McKewn Albergottl, of lllacksburg, an adopted Rock Htllinn, who has made many (Ylonda In tho Carollnas in his half century of work in this section. In his seventies, Captain Alborgott|, erect and active, is beginning his 51st year of work though he is eligible for retirement and a pension. The story of the McKuwn'a family's connection with the railroad goes back to the year 1835 and is, in fAct, [ as old as the story of the railroad. The first McKewn (W. T.), Captain Atbergottt's maternal grandfather, was one of the contractors who built the South Carolina Railway and Navigation company's lines, the first steel railroad in the world. The first line to be built was from Charleston to Hamberg, as you'll find In your Carolina history. There followed lines from Rranchville to Columbia and later from Klngville to Camden. Today all these are part of the Charleston division of the Southern Railway. Mr. McKewn was made roadmoster when these first tracks wore completed and held that position for many years. During the Confederate war he was stationed at Orangeburg, und following Sherman'B destruction of the railroad, he was commissioned to see to its rebuilding. Iu recognition of his service he was presented with a set of silverware, appropriately Inscribed, a piece of which is now owned by Captain Albergottl. The first Mr. McKewn's sons went to war; two who came back In '65 went to work on the same railroad with their father, who continued his service until his death in 1870. These sons wore still working when Captain Albergottl started work for the Southern in 1887. j Captain Albergottl, who was the son of an officer in Wade Hampton's South Carolina Legion, went to work for the Southern Railway in 1887 and in 1895 moved to this Bection of the state, making his home in Blacksburg. "He married there and reared three children. . , Having been born and reared during Reconstruction Days, Captain Albergottl was himself denied the education he desired but has seen his two sohs finish The Citadel and his daughter graduate from Winthrop. His sons are 'William M. Albergottl, superintendent of schools at Greer, and Julian Albergottl, a designer for the Duke Power company, in Char-1 lotte. His daughter is Mrs. Sara C. I^attimore, wife of the first vice preslr dent of the Federal Land bank, Co-, lumbia. Railroad men lived in luck in those early days when he was beginning [ his work, Captain Albergottl will j point out as he tells how men had to work .between cars with the risk) of being caught while handling thej rather crude equipment. "It was a dangerous calling back in those days," he says, "and many, men were killed or injured. "But those were the days of quick promotions. I started work as a. br&keman in July, 1887. I stood the' examination for conductor February 14, 1890, five months before I was 21 years old. "We had wood burning engines In those days and my first assignment was a conductor on a wood train. My duty was?with 25 negro helpers ?to keep the wood racks full. "We would load two-foot sticks from the road side Into a gondola and take them to the racks.- We had 25 gondolas so you can see it took Jots of wqod. ... "During the panic of 1894 I switched from the roadway department to the transportation department. I found an opening on the old 'Three C's' railroad and came to ^hls section of the state. I have been here 42 years, happy and comfortable In our Blacksborg home." !. In hit record of SO years' of railroad service, Captain Albergottl ia proudest of the fact that be has never had a fellow trainman or englneman injured seriously enough to require a doctor's services. He has never .had a collision, either from the front or the reef of his train, though he has experienced several derailments. - Forty years of passenger service have seen only two-.pessengers killed In trains on which he was working. One ||??Outer was killed In a derailment near Camden. The other ef these deaths the veteran conductor remembers wlth ^ clarity because of the peculiar Circumstances Virsreu-. h. c. two youn* men boarded the train flnjgpde their way forward to the Jail Break Is Foiled I Columbia, Ncrv. 29?8am Thompson, escaped North Carolina convlot, was under close guard In the Richland county Jail today after a purported Jail break had foiled. Sheriff T. Alex Hiese said locks on five or eight cells in a Jail tier had been btufted - with soap bo that?the master lever would not lock the cells' ! doors. I When the plan was discovered Saturday night, he said, Thompson's cell was occupied by Ave men, three of | whom had come from another cell. Thompson recently was apprehended with Worth (Tick) Proctor, also an escaped North Carolina convict. Miss Marion Salley, member of the Orangeburg high school faculty and former historian general of the U. D. C., died at her home on the Belleville road, near Orangeburg Friday night. Funeral services were conducted on Monday afternoon at 3 o'clock from St. Paul's Methodist church. Interment was in Sunnyslde cemetery. Dr. T. G Herbert officiated, assisted by the Rev. 8. E. Ledbetter and the Rev. E. K. Garrison. fireman went through the car calling the Glenwood station, the two young men rushed to the door of the second class car and jumped from the train while it was still moving. One of them fell under the wheels of the first class car and was killed. "I learned later," Captain Albergotti recalls, "that it was the first tfcne the two men had been on a train their lives. They had walked ten miles so as to be able to ride home." In 1936 there were 16,000 licensed pilots in the United 8tates. Wife of Aviator Abandon* Hop* New York, Nov. 24.?'Mrs. Paul Redforn, wife of the Columbia, S.

Preparing to leave for her home in Cleveland, Mrs. Redfern said, "I wish the Waldeck expedition success, but I have no hope." The expedition was organized by Theodore O. Waldeck to settle Anally the mystery of Redfern's disappearance. A seat on the New York Stock exi change sold last week for 170,000? $6,000 less than th* last previous Bale. FINAL DISCHARGE !
