Opened Offices in Bristol

Bristol, Va., Nov. 18 - The Kingsport Railway Company, with former 
Governor John Cox as president has opened offices in Bristol. The 
company held a meeting here Saturday at which time money was paid 
into the treasury sufficient to pay the cost of two surveys and such 
other expenses as may be incident to the preliminary work. The survey 
of one route has been made as far west from Bristol as Indian 
Springs, a distance of fifteen miles. President Cox states that the 
surveyors are meeting with much encouragement on the part of the 
farmers through whose lands the surveys are being made.
