Mr. D.R. Cook, who has been the Western Union manager has resigned and today left for his home in Parkersburg,
W. Va. Mr. Cook while here made many warm friends who will regret his conclusion to abandon his work here in which
he was so successful. He has been one of the most efficient and accommodating managers the Western union has ever
had at this point. Mr. Cook's place will be filled hereafter by William McMullen now at the depot.
