Dear SIR
Replying TO your favor of March
18th regarding the question of re-
duced fares: Beg to advise that
under our rules we are not in a
position to arrange for special fares
for any occasion unless We have a
reasonable assurance of an atten-
dance of 1000 or more persons who
will travel by rail from points from
which the local one-way fare to the
place Of meeting is $l.00 or more.
If you find that you can reasonably
expect such an attendance and will
advise Us to that effect, shall be
pleased TO give the matter further
consideration otherwise, regret TO
say that we are unable to arrange
for reduction for your meeting"

Then after they had talked it all over
he tried to comfort her, it Is said, and
explained that at one time while In
