| Hugh Nelson, Esq., a most
respected citizen, and somewhat advanced in years, and who occupies
the position of Treasurer of the South-Side R. R. Co., tendered his
resignation that he might be at liberty to go to Norfolk to join his
company. The Directory would not receive his resignation, but
permitted him to go. The blood of the old revolutionary Nelsons
courses in his veins, and it has fired him up with all the ardor of
youth. |
