laughing at the easy thing we had, and all of us running for the

volley after us, killing Grim and the comrade, whose name I have

time ago the company decided to build
a four-arched stone bridge in the place
of the iron structure over the higc e, !v .
The iron bridge had to be moved ue-t
lifty feet that it might be used until the
stone bridge is built and ready for ser
vice.
Six"''weeks ago the men began the big
undertaking with the building of trestle
approaches to both sides of the creek at
the point where the iron bridge wa- t\ find a new- bed. The
trestling had an average hight of twenty-four feet, and is on a
line with the grade of the old railroad, The timber of the western
approach covered about L'Tli feet, while the eastern approach is
300 feet long. P i l e s w e r e d r i v e n i n t h e m i d o f ;
