The President was directed by the Board
to make contracts immediately for the com-
pletion of the Road from Wadesboro to

We were pleased at the Wanner W which
the North Carolina Directors were treated.
Their wishes were consulted " and i Strictly
reapected by thtsew York and Baltimore
Directors, and they were also hospitably
and elegantly entertained. "We were es
pecially pleased at the election kof Silas N.
