In matters pertaining TO applications

of employees engaged in the same class Of
service as the applicant. hat is to say,

chal and his engineer were discharged.
Furthermore, | told you that a number Of
the men had told me in person that until
Paschal was discharged. they understood
the Bulletin as Paschal did, but | did not
urge in justifica tion of Mr.. Paschals act
that others had committed similar Of
lenses. Ii Paschal complied with the rule
literally he committed no offense, and
therefore needed no argument in justitica-
ton thereof.
We do not understand what You mean
in the last paragraph of your letter of
the 18th, by the words ITO restore such
a man to our ranks without any reason
whatever. Mr.. Paschal has spent nearly
twenty years in the service of the Geor-
gia railroad and if we are to believe the
statements we hear from those who have
come in contact with MIR. Paschal all these
years, he is man whose presence will
honor any community. He had a good
record with this company, and the reasons
why he is not now in the service of the
Georgia railroad are so obvious that al
most everyone in the service understands
it, and 1t needs no further comments
