there will be others (maybe five) and
you must be here; you can't afford to
miss such an opportunity.
Registration books were opened

receive at least five from the Union

Mr.. Little and others to Newbern. |
And do not forget that Mr.. Little will |

! Nashville, Tenn, February 8
| 1922.-Mr. w. Y. Pickard, Union
City, Tenn.-Dear Sir:-Well, Walk
er,. will drop you few lines to lei
you know the condition of our hog
market and prospects for next few
days. We had $1,000 markekt here
yesterday and to-day for lights and
mediums and looks like we will have
steady market for the next few
days, as st. Louis and Chicago are
closing to-day about steady with a
top around $1,000.
We certainly would be glad to see
you up next Monday with load or
Two, for we think that your hogs and
butcher stuff will net you about as
much money here as any place you
could go with them.
Our cattle market has been little
draggy this week on steers but about
steady on butchers. We are. getting
our first load tonight from John
Choat, of Hickman. Ky. We had
hard time getting him started this
way, but I think we will be able to
prove to him that we can net him as
much money here, or more, than he
has been getting in St. Louis. We
certainly appreciate the favors you
show us in that section and will as
sure you that we will always try to
take care of our West Tennessee
friends. Walker, we are trying very
hard to get mixed train put on to
leave Hickman about seven or eight
O'Clock in the evening and pick up
all of the stuff between Hickman and
Hollow Rock Junction, arriving at
Hollow Rock Junction about Ill
O'Clock in the night, which would
give you all connection with the
passenger trains going either to
Memphis or Nashville and we believe
we are going to be successful. We
had a meeting last week with the
railroad officials and they talked very
favorable and I understand they |
sent Mr.. Thompson down through |
that section last week getting all |
the information he could pertaining
to this, and I understand thru Mr..
Johnson that he talked very favorable
and told him he was sure the train
would be put on and that he also was
going to suggest to the company that
they put sleeper on at Hickman for
Nashville and Memphis both. know
hat this will be much better ar
'angement for the people at Union
City and Hickman than they have
been having and l also think that it
will be big help to our market.
They told us that this was the only
lind of train they would consider
putting on, as a passenger train
would not pay. So hoping that we
will see you Monday on our market,
whether you have anything here or
ot, we will be more than glad to see
ou. So assuring you that we appre-
late your past favors, and hoping
D see you soon, we beg to remain
Yours very truly,
