piled that she did not want to go

asked the mother. swell. .

r. r. COMPANY
TO BRING SUIT
Minneapolis, Red Lake & Manitoba Will
Collect From Signers of Right OF
Way Contract.

The following letter has been
mailed by John Lind and A. Ue-
land, as attorneys for the Mime
apolis, Red Lake & Manitoba
railway company, to each OF
those who signed the agreement
by which each signer would be
responsible to the extent of $500
in guaranteeing to furnish a right
of way for the railway pro 'lding
it was built in Bemidji:
Dear Sir;
AS attorneys for the Min
neapolis, Red Lake q Manitoba
Railway company, we beg leave
to call your attention to the con-
tract of October 25th, 1904, by
which you and other residents
of Bemidji undertook TO furnish
the company certain trestle ma
terial. right of way and terminals
for it's Bemidji extension. AS
you are doubtless aware, the
company has faithfully carried
out all it's promises under this
contract, while the other parties
to the contract have signally
failed to fulfill their part. AS a
result the company has been
compelled $11, 7O5 SO in acq uiring
property to which it was entitled
under the contract and TO a
considerable portion of the
terminal grounds the company
has as yet received no title. The
company has been assured by
some of the leading business men
on the contract that without liti'
CATION they would respectively
pay the $500 which the contract
makes the maximum liability OF
each each sigher, but only Mr..
has so far made such
payment. Much as we regret it,
we are forced to the conclusion
that to secure the rights Of the
company it will be necessary IT,
bring suit; and thinking that
you may desire to pay the $500
for which you are responsible
rather then have suit brought
we shall appreciate it if you viii
let US know your wishes in this
respect as soon as you receive
this letter. We will add that
. the company cannot enter
thin proposition to release any
one for less than $500.
Yours respectfully
