| From and after this date all
freights carried by trains of other Roads, running on this track by
permission, must be prepaid before the departure of the train
from the point of shipment. |
| Any such train coming on to
this Road to haul troops or freight, will be allowed the proportion of
the income of such train as agreed to and fixed upon at the Augusta
Convention in Dec., 1862, (viz: one-eighth.) This will not
effect any special agreement heretofore made for a specific purpose,
or for a limited time. It will, however, govern in the payment for the
transportation of troops and their baggage, and one-fourth of
the income of any freight train will be the maximum allowance
to the train for hauling, from the first of April, instant. |
