| Sir, |
| Your note of the 5th inst has been
received. My note ot Maj Poor making inquiry concerning your address was
written at the suggestion of Mr Whitcomb Supt Va Central RR who wished
to ascertain from you various dimensions of the Brooksville Tunnel. He
succeeded however in obtaining this information from another quarter. In
case he should wish to communicate with you on the subject, I have
written, informing him of your address as given in your letter. |
| Yours Very Respectfully |
