Mr. Maxcy was at the Islands on the
receipt of his letter but came up, Sun
day evening, and, yesterday, looked
over the matter and sent letter IN
reply to ii. He was seen by the Jour
nal man and said that he had sent a let
ter and he hoped the contents would be
satisfactory. He was willing to do all
in his power to make the branch road
a success and that all he asked was the
damages to his property and this ne
had placed very low. He did not feel
at liberty to say what the figures were
but was sure that they could be only
satisfactory to all the parties con-
cerned.
This will be good news to the people
of this city who have 50 long desired
to see this road constructed. With
these two letters. nothing but go can
be very well seen.
