"The Duke of Idlewild"
The foregoing is the name of the new narrow gauge locomotive made for the fire clay company operating in the ridge near the Ligonier Valley Railroad. The new locomotive was taken over today. It was built at the locomotive works in Connellsville. It is very small but is no doubt large enough to do the work it is designed for.
