| Captain, |
| Your letter of the 25th inst.
in regard to the removal of the Rogersville Branch R. Rd. iron, and
enclosing your and General Buckner's letters to Col. R. G. Fain,
President of the road
has been received. |
| Understanding that an
injunction has been granted, the Hon. Sec. of War wishes you to secure
legal advice, and take the usual steps to have the injunction
dissolved. |
| The Hon. J. B. Heiskell does
not seem to think that the company wish to delay the decision of the
court, and it is therefore hoped that you will be able to secure
prompt and satisfactory action. |
| Very Respectfully Yours |
| J. F. Gilmer |
