Today the main railroads run north and south, following the fundamental geographical lay of the land, the original dream defeated by geography, sectional differences, politics, and the paralyzing effects of war.

Excerpt from History of the North Carolina Railroad I frankly admit that, apparently, these matters seem quite incongru ous to the subject in hand, and yet I shall show that Judge Douglas and Miss Dix each helped to pave the way for the grant of the Charter for the North Carolina Railroad.
