After ‘a wait of twenty-five minutes theer was a warning clang of the en- gine bell and the train started. This was the signal for the shrieking of whistles on the locomotives in the ard and severz» of the whistles on loeal, manufacturing plants voined in the farewell. g Big Crowd at Greenevil At the Greeneville station there was a large crowd on the platform to greet the boys, many of svhom live in that section of the town. and as the train was running through upper Gréene- ville Engineer John C. Brooks of the Norwich Belt Manufacduring Company blew the whistle at the*plant for sev- eral minutes.
