some accommodation about the run

in the interest of St. Joe. If you want
to go to Kansas City you have either
got to go down to the Junction in the

walk down, nnd the way our roads are
makes me prefer the latter miKle of
travel. In returning you must either
wait until ll o clock for a freight train
