Dear Sir:

I have just learned, through Wootton & Morgan, that Chloe
Morgan, plaintiff in a suit pending in the Perry Circuit Court 1
against the 3 d 3 Hy.Co., has agreed to accent $225.00 and costs 1
in settlement of said suit and the claims embraced therein. I have .
accordingly prepared a Heed of delease, to be executed by Chloe
Morgan and nor husband, and an forwarding same to Wootton & Morgan.
A copy thereof is herewith enclosed for your information. I have to

- ask that you will kindly prepare at once and send me a voucher

covering the agreed payment or 9225.00 and, as soon as I can ob—
tain the Ulerk's taxation of costs in the suit, I will send it in
to be covered by a separate voucher. I think it uerhaos best to
arrange the matter this way so as to get rid of the case, so far
as the plaintiif is concerned, While she is in a mood for settlement.

fhanning you for your prompt attention to the matter, I am,

Very truly yours,

Dear Sir:

Referring to your letter of the 5rd instant,
with enclosures, relative to the case of Chloe Morgan
v. L. & N. R. 30., Perry Circuit Court.

My letter of March 5 probably crossed yours
in the mail. In that letter, a settlement of this
case at $950. if lower terms can not be obtained, was
authorized.

Yours truly, ,‘ {

I have just received a letter from 1:. ﬂarficld, enclosing

”I think, thereiore, that our local attorneys Ghould

' be authorized to evcure the best compromise practicable,

_ in any case not exceeding the $250.00 suggesteé in the
correSpocdence, and ii the Settlenout is made they are to
secure a complete release running with the lanﬁ 30? any
claim which the owners now have or may hereafter have by
reaeon of diversion oi the creek and for unj othci rou—

SOD ﬁroviug out of the construction of the railroad."
ﬁr. Hayfield Viitee ~

”Kotc that he (hr. Hillinme) agrees with you and

Jessrs. uootton & gorgan that'the Morgen case should
be mottled for 3250.00 in the cVent lOWer terms can _
not be obtained, if we can, for that amount, get a

the event the case is settled as outlimd above, might
it not t- :xell to 1.2V» on agreed 311(‘l>;".1eut~ entered,
showing that the amount void covers dunngee sustained

Upon the :s.i.;srcngth oi the i'oregyoiugg, you will pleaSe proceed
at once to See if e SettleWent at £250.00 or less, if yoeeible, can
be eifected, hut in any case it must be provided that the settlement
shall be in bar oi‘ all claims for damage, poet, preeent 9,116. future,

Dear Sir:
I am in receipt of your letter of the 28th ul~

Mr. B. D. ‘.'Iarfield,
District Attorney,
Building.
Dear Sir:

I return papers sent me with your letter of February
28th relative to the suit of Chloe Morgan versus the Comp any.

It is a fact that some wash has occurred to the
Morgan land and also that about one acre of it is flooded and
possibly damaged to such extent by saturation as to prevent it
being cultivated in the future. This damage has resulted from
changing the channel of Willard Creek so as to have it pass
directly beneath our roadbed instead of winding back thru the I
adjoining property and crossing at a point about four hundred
feet north of the present crossing.

While all parties were entirely agreeable to the
change in the creek channel there does not appear to have been
any contract made with them and it will no doubt be difficult
for the Railroad Company to make adequate defense in the matter,
and since there is no question but that recovery will be had
in at least the amount of the proposed compromise, if the case
is permitted to go to trial, it would appear that it wmld prob-

 \ I .

BDN—Z
ably be better to compromise the matter as suggested by our
local attorneys than to continue the litir‘ation . It is a fact

‘ that not exceeding one and one—quarter acres have been de~

‘ stroyed to date but a: this is bottom land it is not difficult
for the owners in the territory to get abundance of evidence ,_..
to show that it is valuable." I think, therefore, that our local
attorneys should be authorized to secure the best compromise
practicable,in any case not exceeding the $250.00 suggested in /
the correspondence, and if the settlement is made they are to “_'
secure a couplets release running: with the land for any claim V /
which the owners now have or may hereafter have by reason of
diversion of the creek and for any other reason growing :Iut '
of the construction of the railroad. ,,/””'/

Your: truly, “a
' (Piaf Engineer of Construction.
