Newberry DSS&A Depot An "Old Wood-Shed"

Railroad managers sometimes forget their obligations to the public.  They are not granted valuable franchises simply to enrich the projectors but also to accommodate the public along the line.  Wonder if there isn't some way of compelling the DSS&A to build a depot for the accommodation of the public at this place instead of the old wood-shed they are using.  [Newberry News, 23 Nov, 1889]
