After repeated efforts, the people along the line, With a few capitalists, and some ald from the State, Dallt a first-class broad gauge railway from the Danks of tie Hudson at Albany to the city of Bing- amton in Broome county. So successfal hat the enterprise become that when the road was opened, ® year ago, abundance of capital was found ready to Complete its equipment throughout in a thorough manner, f The road is now in first-rate order, paying its way and we believe profit, ‘This point has heen rea through the exertions of Joseph H, Ramsey, ite President, sided by the economical and thorough su- Pervision of J.W.
