The same writer appears again this morning |
take no notice of anything bearing personally on
me. and any harshness of language used by myself
must be regarded as necessary official defence OF
the Company. To permit an attempt to change
the results OF operations for two years. by plac-
ing an item OF Sao0,ooO unjustly. to our Est Of
current annual expenses" was too serious mat
ter 70 the stockholders, to pass unnoticed.
have been told that the evident marks of hostil.
ty, stamped on these statements, have disarmed
them of their influence. Believing now that they
are understood, although there is fresh batch Of
nlisstatements, which may possibly confuse those
who not familiar with Railroad accounts neces-
