ness, and there was no reason why they
should require five years within which to
complete the construction of the road.
There were no engineering difficulties
to be overcome, and the Construction OF
a road between Richmond and Wash
ington was an easy task MIR. Saunders
added that there was no reason to be IN
haste about this matter, since in little
over eighteen months another General
Assembly would be in session here. and
If the Seaboard declined to agree to the
amendments of the Finance Committee
the State in the mean time would receive
its dividend of 1: per cent. By another
session the Seaboard would be ready to
make another offer, which would more
nearly approximate the value of the
States interest in the Richmond. Fred
