Notice
Office W. & W. R. R. Co.   {Wilmington & Weldon RR}
Wilmington, N. C., June 8th, 1861
 
   The night trains are continued temporarily for the accommodation of the military service mainly, and are only temporary. The mis-connection at Weldon by this train is unavoidable, as ten hours have been deemed a necessary allowance of time in which to run those large trains with safety.
   The day train has no orders to leave Weldon until the other trains are due, and this Company never orders its trains to leave passengers when the connection trains are in sight or hearing.
By order,
S. L. Fremont
Eng. & Supt.
