All that you have stated in your let
ter has been carefully noted and given

/ note that YOU have sent copy of the
letter to Mr.. p. II. Paschal and to Mr..
G. y. Jones. You evidently overlooked,
however, sending a copy to the chairman
of the Trainmen's General committee on

Prior 10 the receipt of your letter a
20 p. m. today. all of the facts in. con
nection with the cases of Mr.. Paschal
and Mr. Morgan had been prepared in the
proper form to be printed and submitted
to the men on your line.
As soon as the joint committees Of the
Conductors and Tranmens organizations
have secured the vote Of the men en-
poyed in train and yard service on the
Georgia Railroad. YOU will be advised Of
the result. and ! might add that the
vote will he secured as PROMPTLY as pos
sihle on account Of the fact that al

slider these matters. ! remain very truly

chal and his engineer were discharged.
Furthermore, / told you that 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 justification 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 tustifica-
tion 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 Mr.. Paschal all these
years, he is a 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'it needs no further comments.
