Good Morning!!

	One more point of clarification.......

	The stop at the trestle is listed as  *Bethel*  on the 1963 interurban
map drawn by Roy G. Benedict.  This same stop is listed as 
*Bethel--Church*  on a linear track diagram of the Charleroi interurban.

	Interesting that on the latter map,  *Mesta*  does not exist - the
stops jump from Lytle to Bethel Church.  Also, McDonnel does not exist
south of Bethel Church!
