part that am not able to fulfill the duties
Of my office, 1 am compelled in justice to
the company, and myself, to tender my

1t is with more regret than I can well
express, that after thirty-fve years ser
vice, have this to do.
Allow me in severing my connection
with the road to express to you my ap-
probation of the many acts of kindness,
both official and personal, received at
your hands.
Asking that you name the date for
above to so into effect, 1 remain, Yours

Receiver Conner answered Mr. McIn-
tyres letter as follows:
Savannah, Ga. Oct %, 1894. Mr.. Edward
Mcintyre, controller, city: Dear Sir
Your letter Of the 18th inst, is received,
informing me that on account of contin-
ued i'll health, and in accordance with the
advice of your physicians, you are Obliged
to sever your official connection with the
receivers of the Central Railroad and
Banking company and the Savannah and
Western Railroad company.
In acknowledging your letter It would
be only commonplace to express regrets
for the cause of your retirement from a
luHM IT,
faithfully, first with the corporation and
since with the receivers. In considerin <
the arduous labors and annoyances incl
dent to the many difficulties which for
more than two years have been encoun-
tered, there has come into existence a feel
ing stronger than that which usually OBJ
tains between officials, and in parting
with you feel that we lose a faithful Of
hcer, one who has by devotion to duty
and strict integrity proved himself worthy
of the fullest confidence. 1t is perhaps
more fitting for me to give expression to
this sentiment, because during the most
trying period of the receivership I was
alone the official head, and better know
the facts. And I now desire to express to
you my appreciation of your efforts to dis
charge faithfully not only your own du-
| ties, but also to tighten my burdens.
In saying that in the rest you seek ]
hope will become restored to health. I
