Dear Sir:-
1 believe I wrote you the other day that I had process
in the suit of Letcher County against the Lexington & Eastern Rail~
way Company. I supposed that it was, of course, the $300,000.00
beauty, which had been ordered by the Fiscal Court, but the copy
of the petition which has just cone in shows that it is rarely
a suit against our conpany and the Luck Construction Connany and
Doggett—Doughty Company seeking to recover for injuries to the jail
and court house.
This is Saturday night and I will not have tire to have
this petition coried, rut 1"ill send you a copy Monday.
by. Eields advises no that he understands that hoggett—
Doughty have promised to fix the court house and jail, and that the
County Attorney has indicated that he will be satisfied if this is
done. ,
Yours Very truly,
