Who is to pay for repairing road destroyed by the enemy, the Government or the RR Company? I am connecting {Mobile &} Girard RR with Macon RR {Muscogee RR}. Company offers to pay half of the expenses at this time or pay whole expense after the war in gold valuation.
{Appears to be discussing a connection in Columbus, Ga.}
