awarded a verdict of three thousand j
rlnlliira
The case will be caricd by the |
Southern to the Circuit Court of
Appeals which meets in Richmond,
Va. The attorney for the Power
Fuel-Company was J. A. Sawyer,
Esq., assisted by Hon. Stanyarn
Wilson, of Spartanburg. This case
grew out of the fire that occurred in
the woodyard two or three years
ago. It is alleged by the plaintiff

by an overturned lamp in a l>ox car
l>clonging to the work train. This
car was on the sidetrack in close

There are two camps of surveyor
near Santue. It seems that ther
is a good prospect for another rail
road to be put on one side or th

the old road. Well, it does seen
that the new road would be mor<
benefit to those who have no rail
road to do any of their hauling
Now a road through the Cros
