WHY He DID NOT
VOTE FOR WHITE
-
Judge \. L. Holiday Gives Rca-
sons for His Action in
r., F. & P. Case.
ACTION WAS NOT PERSONAL
De declared That Mr.. White Was
Out of Sympathy With the
States Policy.

The filing Of the report OF the Stats
board OF proxies OF the nichmond, Fred
ericksburg and Potomac Railroad ycsteF-
day With the State Corporation Commits
sion, made public for the first time tho
reasons why Judge a. l.. Holiday. one
of tho proxies. declined to unite In ac-
ceptng Mr.. William II. White as pres
ident OF the road. thereby preventing tho
UNANIMOUS action OF the stockholders in
confirming the conference acton.
Judge Holiday promised at that Tins
to give his reasons N the report OF the
proxies, and has kept his promise After
referring to the step taken by the State
to pay off the bonded debt, and the steady
decrease thereof. Judge Holiday says.
The Second Auditor of Virginia stated
on December TO- 1905. that within the last
two years Mr.. William II. White visited
the office OF the Second Auditor and
there declared that he had not funded
and would never fund, under the terms
OF the above acts, certain bonds OF tho
State of Virginia owned or controlled by
him, and that he regarded the action of
Virginia as repudiation.
In my opinion:
"A. % The States Interests in tile
Richmond, Fredericksburg and Potomac
Railroad and all the income therefrom
constitute a truth fund; f2) the president
OF that company is the tiduciary for the
preservation. management. Increase and
productiveness OF the trust subject. and
G0, the holders of Virginia bonds is
sued under the above acts are the bcne-
hcaries of the trust
OUT OF SYMPATHY WITH Us.
Il. Mr. White has declined to bring
himself under the provisions Of this
trust: is out of sympathy with those
who have; and there could have been
no settlement fthe public dept, un-
der these acts. If Nirginia's otl.er crcdi-
tors had followed Mr.. Whites exam
pie.
&C. This attitude Of Mr.. White to-
wards Virginia ard her people does
not give promise OF consideration for
Virginia and he'd people In the future:
and L was unwilling while acting as
her proxy, and in her hehalf.!tto vote
for her creditors who has declined all
of lrer efforts to settle. and declared
her course to he reputation. as 1.-THE fl
duciary to preserve and manage the
property constituting the corner stone
OF her sinking fund for the mainten-
ance fher credit.
Because of what has been stated in
the foregoing report and infthis memoir
andum voted against the election of
Mr.. White as president of the Richmond.
Fredericksburg and Potomac Railroad
Company at the stockholders meeting
held December l. 1906 and in doing so 1
was actuated by no personal feeling"

The festival is also known as tho
Feast Of Harvest, and the Day of The
First Fruits. Pentecost Is the name
given the feast by the Greek-speaking
Jews, the festival occurring so days
after the offering of the barley sheaf
during the Passover Feast in Pales
tine the grain harvest fasted seven
weeks and was a season of gladness.
1t began with the harvesting of the
barley during the Passover and end-
ed with the harvesting of the wheat
at Pentecost. the wheat being the last
cereal to ripen. Pentecost was thus
the concluding festival of the grain
harvest.
A popular custom on Pentecost is to
eat dairy foods and cheesecalSes, in
honor Of the law which is likened 20
honey and milk" The meat follows
the milk meal. These two meals rep
resent the two loaves of bread for
merly offered in the "bippurim" offer
ing at the temple service. In the syn
agogues the scroll of Ruth is read,
because the story of Ruth, embracing
Judaism and the description of the
scene of harvesting, are appropriate to
the festival Of the law, and Of the
harvest.
