to 30 with him 10 n house on Tbomp.

mcnt 10 recover sl53,0OO and interest for
coupons on bonds purchased twenty years
ago, which have never been paid, for the
reason ,ha, the coupons we're supposed TO
have been lost The amount offered by the
agents Of the road is Slo5,oOO, which, they
urge, is ample, cons;dern: the iact that
they were deprived Of the use of their road
Tor four years by the Confederates, and that
the Government neypr demanded payment
until about two years nso. These coupons
belong to the bonds purchased with
the Cherokee Indian funds at the be.
ginning OF the War, which amounted
10 about half a million dollars The Con-
federates took possession OF the road shortly
afterward, and all dealings were OF course
suspended for about four years. Atthc end
OF this time the coupons in question had
disappeared, and no one in the Treasury
Department knew what Ind become OF
them. Two years ago, however, iniorma.
ton was received which led to Il search
among the old papers o. the department,
and resulted in the finding Of the lost Sc.
curitles. Whether these papers were hid.
den Intentionally or not, could never be
learned, but from tho fact that no one is
known TO have proiltcd by their disap.

merely nislaid through carclessuess. Upon
their recovery suit was brought against the
