    1. [GAPIKE] 1895 Zetella Train Wreck

    3. The Pike County Journal. Zebulon, Pike County, Georgia, August 23, 1895 There was a wreck of a freight train above Zetella last Friday which caused a delay of one day of the arrival of the passenger train. Mr. Arthur Marshall and the writer came down from Atlanta on the passenger train Friday and spent the night on the car at Woolsey. The mosquitos were on dress parade and contributed to the interest but not to the pleasure of the camp. After several fruitless attempts to get supper the blacksmith, Mr. Jones, came to our rescue and furnished us with a supper fit for a prince. Mrs. Jones we apprehend is not one of the “new women” we read of, but she is an artist in her line and ought to be allowed to vote if she wants to. (Transcribed 11/09/02 Lynn Cunningham)
