| Piedmont Railroad |
| The cars are said to be
running on the Piedmont Railroad to the distance of nine and a half
miles from Greensboro'. The trains run as far as to Reidsville,
twenty-five miles from Danville, and the track is laid some mile and a
half beyond Reidsville. Thus, there remains only about fourteen miles
of the track yet uncompleted, which it is thought, will be ready for
the cars in the course of two months. There remains to be graded only
six or seven miles. By the 1st of June, it is expected (says the
Danville Register) that the trains will be running through from
Danville to Greensboro'. |
| The foregoing from the
Richmond Sentinel fully sustains the statement we made sometime ago
upon the authority of a contractor on that road in regard to it. He
said they talked about getting the work done in June, but it would be September
or October before it would be completed. |
