Decatur Street Railway Sues Over Falling Terra Cotta
Legal action filed in Decatur Ga targets the Central Railway Company and Geo rig Company seeking injunctive relief to stop streetcar and wire work along the Decatur line after falling terra cotta damage. The suit also covers damages from injuries to residents and workers, with multiple claims of bodily harm and property damage totaling thousands of dollars. A separate suit seeks $10,000 for Malinda Peeves injured in a Decatur streetcar incident and $5,000 for her husband J M Reeves.
