Dear Sirs:— Replying to your favor of July 28, 1915: I am writing
to my client by this mail asking for its original contract with Dixon,
and shall advise you immediately upon its receipt. 1 have in my
hands the original bill of lading, and have also, since the claim was _
first placed with me, received a copy of the claim as originally filed
with the Long Island Railroad. It appears from this that Dixon is
right in his statement that he paid $10 on accoant, at the making of
the centract. The claim shows an invoice of $130, with a credit of
#10 cash, leaving a balance of $120, exclusive of accrued interest.

If you will send along the article of subrogation I will
have it executed by the Edward Thompson Company, so the matter can be
closed in accordance with your's of the 28th inst.

Your's very truly,

Dear Sir:

Replying to yours of the 23rd instant, and returning
herewith file attached thereto in reference to claim L-l93164—D,
covering shipment of law books by Edward Thompson Co. bf Northport,
Long Island, New York, to John L. Dixon, of Hyden, Kentucky, I
have attempted to prepare such a form of contract or Article of
Subrogation as, in my judgment,will sufficiently cover the prOposed
arrangement for settlement of this claim between the L & E and the
Edward Thompson Co. In the suit heretofore filed in the name of the
L & E against Dixon, it is claimed by Dixon that he paid al0.00
to the Edward Thompson Co. at the making of this contract and, for
that reason, I have inserted a stipulation that the present contract
is made upon the distinct understanding between the parties that
no part of the purchase price has ever been paid to the ddward
Thompson Company. I have done this upon the idea that if it turns
out conclusively that the Edward Thompson Co. did in fact receive
an initial payment of Wl0.00, then the L & E will be entitled to
have that much of the present payment returned to it.

At the time the Article of b‘ubrogation is executed, the
Edward Thompson Company ought, by all means, be required to turn
over to us not only the original bill of lading, but also one of the
original contracts betWeen it and John L. Dixon. It is doubtless

true that this contract provided that the title to the books should
‘ remain in the fidward Thompson Company until padd for, which, under

 ‘ .
W.A.MoD.#2.
the Kentucky law, would have the effect either of authorizing the '
recovery by the L 8c E of the books themselves or give it a lien
upon the books to secure the purchase price.

Trusting that the enclosed form of contract, which I am
sending you in duplicate, will be found satisfactory, and returning

I am,
