Velvet Sunshine Ride and DeLoach Mill Tour Tale
A narrator recalls riding in an automobile with Mr. A. A. DeLoach to inspect the Aragon hotel and a Piedmont mill scene. He describes the DeLoach factory, its new machines, and a reverse motion saw mill, praising its global shipments and Atlanta impact while recounting the founder’s rise from a speculative start to a major 160 employee operation. The tale mixes humor, invention talk, and a brief origin story from 1886 to present.

Paris to Houston by Rubber-Head Automobile Ride
A narrator recalls a Paris scene of hundreds of automobiles, then describes a first ride in a simple rubber-headed car along Piedmont and Houston streets. The exhilaration is felt as the machine glides, with Mercury-like speed and wind in the face, before hitting a muddy side street and a swift exit toward Highland Avenue.
