dent Mcleod did not arrive in Boston as
expected.
His letter of resignation was, however,
presented to the meeting.
In it he says he accepted the Office OF
president, representing the interest of Che
Reading railroad in the Boston and Maine.
He says he contemplated traffic arrange
ments between the two companies which
would be mutually advantageous, but since
he is not now officially connected with the
Reading company and the Reading has
parted with Its holdings of the Boston and
Maine stock, it will be impossible for him
to carry out his plans.
Hon. Frank Jones will be chosen presi
dent at the next meeting of the board.
