JSo. NJ. FLEMING, Eso.-Dear Sir-ln
your report of The proceedings Of the town
meeting of the friends of the Knoxville and
Kentucky Railroad, published in the last issue
of the Register, am reported rs having said
that was "warmy and heartily in favor of
the transfer of the stock mentioned in the
amendment"
TO those who did not hear me, on that oc.
casion, this report would probably carry an
erroneous Impression, MS to the position as.
sumed by me. The amendment" referred
to, advocates the unconditional transfer of
the stock onwed by the State in the East
Tennessee md Georgia Railroad Company,
to the Knoxville Railroad Company. | did
say, was heartily in favor of this transfer
but, it was coupled with the express condition,
that the Stockholders of the East Tennessee
and Georgia Railroad Company should be
amply protected against the danger of being
outvoted, and controlled in the management
of their Road by any Company, or person
voting upon this stock.
No one estimates more highly than do,
the vast importance TO us of the Knoxville
and Kentucky Railroad. Yet, as n Director
in the Fast Tennessee and Georgia Railroad
Company, lconld by no means consent tosee
the great power which this stock would give
in the control of this Road, welded by one
Company or person, who would have no d.
rect and permanent interest in its manage.
ment. further, took occasion to add that,
if this transfer was made, that so soon rs the
stock was bona fde distributed, and come TO
the hands Of different bona tide holders,
that my objection on this head would cease
You will much oblige me by publishing this
note in your next paper
am, very respectfully, &c.
