{The below document is undated, but must have
been created about December 1, as Capt. Grant was starting his task
of repairing the Georgia RR. The document shows the number of 6 and
7 as page numbers, but the rest of the document has not been
discovered. The document is in the Grant Papers. The line of road
just below was constructed by gluing numerous pages of letter paper
to make a single chart.} |
