The Governor elaborated his idea as
70 the position OF the Pennsylvania as
a competitor. and specified several ways
IN which the great system might divert
traffic from the Virginia road He re-
ferred especially 10 the New York, Phua-
delphia and Norfolk line and the route
via the Chesapeake and Ohio and the
steamship lines from Norfolk. and othe~
routes from the South entering Norfolk

assured the State that they desired 60
