| Dear Sir, |
| I will try to meet you in Selma on or
before the 28th. |
| The Department has not instructed me as to
the change in the mortgage, except in general terms that the mortgage
should cover the whole road. This can be perfected as well without my
presence as with(?). I will ask Col. Gilmer by letter, if the new
mortgage must be sent to Richmond for approval. As you have no copy of
the contract I will take one to Selma. The mortgage was forwarded to you
by mail some days ago. |
| Very Respectfully & truly Yours |
