The Union depot will resume work soon as hitches are removed. Richmond and Danville backers say they are ready to push forward and meet obligations to Horace Davis who ran the farm dairy and vineyard of Dr. R. H. Lewis near Raleigh. Davis died suddenly last Friday night at his home likely from heart trouble. He was about 35, married with five children and born in England. His father came to this area about fifteen years ago and returned to London seven years ago, coming back last summer. Davis was energetic and well regarded.
