518,—Mr. Snell having failed to comply with the request I
wade to him in the concluding paragraph of the annexed letter,
I feel it copy due to myself to lose no further time in trans-
mitting a of the same to you, which you are at liberty
to make public. I should, on my own part, have been
glad to have been spared the necessity of taking this step, and
hae endeavoure in a subseuent orrespondence to induce Mr. Snell
tov candidly correct the misstatement that he had made in the cir-
cular of the 31st ultimo, concerning such misstatements had, to some
extent, influenced shareholders in arriving at erroneous conclusions ;
bat he not having accedel.to my wishes, I have no alternative but to
pursue this course.—l am, Sir,
Your most obedient servant,
J. E. COLEMAN.

To the Hon. Francis Scott, M.P.,
Chairman of the
London and Soath-Western Railway Company,
York-road.

(corr.)
36, Coleman-street, London, 4th Nov., 1853.
Sir,—l have just now received from Mr. E. Wright one of
the printed circulars of the shareholders in the South-Western
Railway Company, datel 31st October, 1853, and bearing your
signature.
I regret to find it stated in the second paragraph of h
ic thatconfim letter,
first, that I have given an opinion on the accounts, whr
Mr. Mortimer's statements; and, secondly, that a time is stated as
necessary in my opinion to pericct an investigation of the accounts.
In reference to the first statement, I said to Mr. Wright that
before I could give an opinion upon the accounts, it w Wright
be
necessary that I should see the books from which the accounts
had been prepared or extracted ; which observation I repeated to
you at an interview here on the Ist inst. In respect to the second
statement, not having seen the books, it was impossible that I could
offer an opinion as to the titan which the investigation would
occupy.
Under these circumstances, I cannot but think that my name
has been coupled most unwarrantably with statements that I
never made ; and as my professional reputation is involved in this
matter, I shall feel it my duty to give publicity to the letter, unless
the statements I have referred to are set righ papers, under the cir-
cumstances, I feel called upon to return your
I am, Sir, yourmost obedient servant,
(mSigned)bedi J. E. COLEMAN.
