road to kerrville for u subscription by
the citizens Of Kerr, Kendall and Bexar
counties OF $1,000 per mile of its first
mortgage bonds, that such offer should
remain open indefinitely. If the matter
were settled within the next ten DAYS, Ii
would be an easy matter to complete our
road to BOerne and possibly the Guada-
lupe In time for this seasons trade; but IL
much longer delayed, we could scarcely
hope to complete road sufficient to
give us any large amount of traffic until
another year had rolled around. Our
forces are now being placed with refer
ence to the rapid building Of our Waco
branch, aud Ii Is not desirable to have
the offer above-named stand open later
than July II. II the matter is not finally
closed up by that time you may consider
the proposition withdrawn.
