NP, RD 1/2/1861

From the Richmond Dispatch
 
January 2, 1861
 
In good condition
   At the last meeting of the Directors of the Petersburg Railroad Company, besides declaring the usual dividend, a proposition was submitted to increase the amount of percent., but it was deemed advisable to withdraw it, and keep the surplus, so as to be prepared for any emergency of the times. This argues that the road is in a good condition.
