Street Car Franchise Promises Prove True In Lawrence
One year ago two Dayton promoters asked Lawrence for an electric street railway franchise. Albert Emanuel and W. R. Sullivan promised service, and soon work began on the Mass Street line with more routes to follow. Despite skeptics, the first car ran on schedule and service has improved, with Judge Dwyer returning around March 1 to complete the loop around Mount Oread. The system now provides frequent cars, especially Sundays and in bad weather, and residents greet Emanuel, Dwyer, and Sullivan for delivering a street car line Lawrence had not previously seen.
