_ Rququc. VIRUINIA
Roanoke, Va., January 10, 1918.
In re Harold Goal a Coke Co.
Messrs. Harkins & Harkins,
Prestonsburg, Kentucky.
Gentlemen:

in regard to the deed from the Hatchers for
the right of way needed for siding, it seems that
when Mr. Markley was at Harold, some of the Hatchers
were drinking and some trouble arose. I remember
distinctly it was discussed at the time we made set-
tlement, and my recollection is that the price of
$25.00 was named, though I would not be willing to
state it was definitely agreed to. I am satisfied that
if you will see that we are protected and that we re-
ceive the deed to the strip of land at a reasonable
price.

The Hatchers impressed me as being entirely
reasonable as to price, and if there had been any
suggestion otherwise, I would not have closed up
for the property, and even now I do not anticipate
any serious trouble, as the Hatchers impressed me as
being entirely fair.

Yours ve y truly,
W-Bw
