NP, RD 10/8/1861

From the Richmond Dispatch
 
October 8, 1861
 
*****
   The Little Rock True Democrat states that the railroad from that city to White River {the Memphis & Little Rock RR} will be completed this fall at the rate they are now progressing. Finding it difficult to bring iron up the Arkansas River, they have taken it up White River, and commenced laying the track from that end. Some fifteen or twenty miles are completed, and they are gradually approaching the Arkansas River.
