| Sir, |
| I am anxious to get down here as soon as
possible all the slate you have on hand. |
| I now enclose you an order from Mr. Tyler,
Supt. Macon & Western R. R., authorizing the Agent at Cartersville
{Western & Atlantic RR} to stop 4 cars of
the Macon & Western R. R. as they pass that Depot and to load them with
slate for me. Please deliver this order to the R. R. Agent and see that
the slate is forwarded as rapidly as possible. |
| I am, Sir, |
| J. W. Mallet, Major |
