| Enclosed are papers relative
to a quantity of potatoes on the line of the Wilmington & Weldon
Railroad. It is desirable that they should be moved if more important
interests will permit it. Please do what in your judgment is best in the
matter and advise me of your action. Absence prevented earlier
attention. |
