The little frame structure that serves as an office for the Adams Ex- press company at e, and sets just a few feet to the south of the station, is again ready for repairs as the result of being bunted by a freight cdr. The office sité {s just beyond the dead end of a sidétrack. Once pre- iously a freight car was backed off this siding, which. has a bumper pro- tector at the end, and dd- into the express office, which in turn tore 2 hole in_the brick wall of the railroad station itself.
