Corn! Corn!! Corn!!! |
Maj. John S. Rowland, the efficient
Superintendent of the State Road {Western &
Atlantic RR} publishes a card, which will be found in another
column, giving notice that he will start an engine with twenty cars
from this point on the 16th inst. to transport corn from Macon and the
different stations on the South Western Railroad, in order that the
wants of the families of soldiers and the destitute in our mountain
country may be relieved from the sufferings that now exist in that
section of Georgia, and the threatened famine there. The corn thus
transported will be deliver free of transportation charges to the
suffering families and the destitute at the various stations between
Atlanta and Tennessee on the line of the State Road. |
