Rogersville Ten
 
Dear Sir,
   We wrote Col Fain some days ago, asking his permission to a sale of the Engine last delivered your Company {the Rogersville & Jefferson RR} for which nothing has been paid. We requested an immediate reply, but have heard nothing from him. We have carried that debt a long time & really think if the Company cant pay us they ought to give us the option of selling that Engine to some other Road. 
   We wish you & he would look into the question & let us hear when you can pay the amt. of our assessment or are disposed to allow a resale of the Engine.
Very Truly
J. R. Anderson & Co
