Truly yours,

JAMES HEED, ESQ.-Dedr Sir In looking
over Col. Camps report of his survey Of the
Ashtabua and Youngstown Railroad, notice
tho following remark, In relation to the former
survey, II found however, In four different pla-
ces gradients which from reading of the En-.
gineers report of 1857, had no right TO ex-
pect" No one, 1 believe, doubts the correct
ness of Mr.. Hale's survey, but without an ex-
PLANTATION, 1t might appear that the gentlemen
who located the road and managed It. were
either incompetent or intended TO deceive
After Mr.. Hale left the work, Mr. J. G. Cham
berlain took charge of It, and by his recon.
mendatlon, and the advice of Mr. VIM. W.
Reed, as consulting engineer, It was ordered
that the grades be increased and the work ma
terially reduced for financial reasons. The
grades were changed by Mr.. Chamberlain, to
the entire satisfaction of the Board of Direct
ors. AS the maps, field notes, &C., were burnt
in the Office at Rock Creek, all record of the
change was lost l made this statement at our
first meeting in Youngstown, but it escaped my
attention when Col Camp read his report at
our last meeting. BY giving place to the above
statement, in justice to gentlemen of known
ability in their profession you will much oblige
Your ob't serv't, H. HUBBARD.
