diers who fought for the lost cause.
One railroad company is stressing the
fact that its trains run through his
toric battlefields of ^Virginia, taking
in a view th$ crater near Petera-
burg and the fortifications around
Richmond. Another company calls at
tention to the fact that* the veterns
who travel on its road will ride over
ode stretch of 48 miles which was
built by Confederate* soldiers, "and
which has remained, perhaps, the most
permanent monument of any work
done by th?^ Confederacy/* It is the
line between Greensboro, N. C., and
Danville, Va.
When the war began there was no
railroad connecting the old Richmond
and Danville with the North Carolina
system of roads. A railroad official
in sketching the situation, aaya the
Confederate authorities saw the strat
egic value of such a lint, “an^ were
able to bring to bear sufficient pres
sure to overcome the obstacles which
had previously stood in the fray of its
construction, owing to the rivalry of
North .Carolina and .. Virginia, each |
State seeking to protect its own rail*
way interests."
The rail necessary for the construe
nection was procured by tearing
other lines. At the doae of the war
the 4M-mile stretch w*s confiscated by.
the United States ss one of the
of the Confederacy and there eras pro
longed litigation before the
and Danville received it.
This section has been double-tracked
but few changes were found
“in the location as determined by the
war-time engineers** .

It is up to you to discard the stock

is as far ahead of the old cash^in-hand
method as the self-binder is ahead of
