| Sir, |
| Your letter of the 29 is recd. I am
willing to accommodate you with a portion of the depot at Dalton for
the purpose you mention. Would that portion, from the north and down
to within a few feet of the 2nd door be large enough. If so what, per
month will you give for rent. Should your business require more room,
I will endeavor to let you have it. In the event however, of a flood
of business on the Rd. we might be much crowded. Write me on recpt of
this. I think I will be at Dalton. Some time next week. |
| Very respectfully yrs |

of the portion I ??? now |
