and located in Cass county making
his homestead at the outskirts of
Plattsmouth in 1S.1C and the old
homestead still stands as a monu

of his hopes. Through the times of

bore his part with bravery nd cour

lengthen out their eastward course,

early hour when the morning train
departs northward. No. 2? which is
due out of this city at 1:"S p. in. is
restored to the schedule and will
care for those de-iring to go to Om
aha while the niithl train back from
Omaha due here at 0 p. in. will also
be run and while many have cursed
at this faith. fill ai-.C slow plodding
combination train, still it is very
convenient to the traveler from our
little city who does not care to bask
ia the brist lights of the metropo
lis until the weary midnight hour.
The branch trains are also restored
in the order, inclining the "Schuy
ler" as well as the stub trains oper
ated by Yardmater Charley Johnson.
