Special Notice to Consignees of Cotton
   The attention of Consignees is earnestly requested to the regulations of this Company, which require the removal of Cotton from the yard immediately after the discharge from the Cars. Unless Cotton is removed according to rule, it will be removed by the Company into City Warehouses and stored at the expense of Consignees.
   The rush of Cotton is such at this moment that there will not be room for its discharge, notwithstanding the very large space allotted for its reception, if Consignees fail to have it promptly hauled out.
   I appeal to the Merchants and to owners of drays to aid me in my efforts (which I promise shall be unremitting) so to conduct business as that they as well as the Company shall not be put to unnecessary trouble or delay.
   Let us work together with a will and we can accomplish our task.
Geo. W. Adams, Gen'l Sup't
