We have, during the past years, built eight (8) Box Cars,
and rebuilt four (4) Open Cars, and one Mail and Baggage Car. In
addition to the above, we have six Box and one Open Car of the East
Tennessee & Virginia Railroad, which we claim in place of the Cars
of this Company oin possession of that Company when East Tennessee was
evacuated.

We have lost two (2) Box Cars on the Camden and South
Carolina Railroad, three (3) Cars on the Macon & Western Railroad,
and three (3) on the South Carolina Railroad, by accidents -- the
balance of the missing stock was destroyed and captured on the line of
Railroad in East Tennessee. We have also at this place one Stationary
Engine and Boiler -- a miscellaneous lot of shop machinery -- about 50
new Car Wheels, and a considerable lot of scrap iron -- three car
loads of good lumber, and frames for two Box Cars complete.
