| A double track from Augusta to Branchville
{on the South Carolina RR} may become necessary. Are the cuts & embankments adapted for a
double track? If not what amount of time & labor will be required
to adapt them? Examine & report without delay upon the plan. This
telegram was sent in your absence to Maj. Echols but probably
miscarried as no reply has been received. |
