had been mismanaged and that excessive
salaries had been paid to its officers
In the original petition II was asserted
that the company had not made a state
ment for many years and had ignored all
court orders to show its books

This was borne out In part day by
line Of questioning pursued by Mr. Doug

Dulaney offered the Virginia ana South

IN 1908 for $500. 900. and II was refused !;
hut that II was purchased by the Southern
IN 1908 for 100000.
Mr. Douglass Thought he saw something

MIR Douglass persisted that McHarg
