Re: (erielack) hospital



I'm on vacation and my notes are home, but the DL&W of Moses Taylor is the 
DL&W Coal Co.  ot the railroad per se. The DL&W was very 
Christian/paternalistic in outlook (no trains/no mining on Sunday) in the 
atyle of 19th-Century Social Gospel Protestants.

Cheers,
Jim Guthrie
