I am informed that one hundred and twenty tons of Railroad
iron {about 1 1/4 miles, both rails} are
awaiting transportation at Hamiltons Crossing, which it is important
should be brought to this city as soon as possible. Please use every
effort to furnish the necessary cars, and if there be an6 difficulty
about the transportation, inform me at once. |

I feel assured that you will cheerfully afford all the
facilities in your power. |
