Commissioner,
The above is a letter from the rail-
read commission In answer to my
letter to them. 1t win be noted that
this inspection will be made as soon
as other duties OF the engineer will
permit. We cannot see how other
duties can be more important than
this: or he ought to have more en-
gineers. The roadbed is In an awful
condition. and we think that they
shculd mot be permitted to carry
passengers over II until It IL repaired,
w. JUDGE c, L. BARRETT.
