letter Is intended alike for yourself aud Ma.
Caldwell. Please show IL TO him. They are
now allowing 30 per cent. circulation ON 1910

ance that you shall have null Si5OOOO citcu-

The opinion gains ground here quite rap

dillon OF the road aud that you have re-

which you were entitled under
the Eastern contracts, when you
consider the length OF the road only

the road progresses To deliver you the bonds

legations TO deliver bonds TO others; but TAX
