Democratic Sentinel, Volume 9, Number 49, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 8 January 1886 — "As the Crow Flies.” [ARTICLE]
"As the Crow Flies.”
This interesting bird, as is well known, always takes the shortest route and “gets there” soonest. In this respect he is worthy of imitation by travelers. For example, a man going to Florida, as many do at this season, would naturally take the Danville Route, because that line not only passes through the most interesting country, but makes the ran from Chicago to New Orleans and Jacksonville in forty hours. This unfirecedented performance is made possible >y the new bridge over the Ohio River, near Evansville, which brings Nashville within sixteen hours of Chicago. Palace Buffet Sleepipg Cars run without change to Nashville, and with but one change to New Orleans and Jacksonville, Florida. Send to William Hill, General Passenger Agent, C. & E. I. R. It.. Chicago, for an illustrated copy of “Florida—A Story.”
