Mr. K. A. JcDowell,
General Hanrger.
Denr Sir:—

I hand you herewith the correspondence with Ir.ﬁ.ﬂ.hither~ .
spoon in regrrd to the fencing of uhe north Side of the right of way
through the L.3allie lay nnd F.H.Dudley lends west of Tinchester.

Hr.Wi3herppoon quotes correctly the wording of the award of
the jury in the condemnation of the Gey right of way. The length of
fence required for this right of we; on both sides is 285 rods, so that
the avard of $1500 for fencing is at the rate of $4.56 per rod. The
fence could be built now for $1.00 per rod, leaving $5.56 as a mainten—
ance fund, the interest of which at 6% would be Sufficient to rebuild
the fence every five years. I therefore think that there can he no
doubt but that that was vhau she a erd was for.

Yours truly,
/ , < m\ /, m .
Chief Engineer.

Dear Sir:- -
I have your favor of the 19th inst., and am not sure '
that you are correct in your reference to the Mrs. L. Callie Gay
. judgment rendered at the A3331]. term, 1889, Book 22, page 79.
This judgment recites that, "We, the jury, find the following
damages for defendant: For fencing, $1300.00
For land actually taken, 1077.00
For damages to adjacent land, l1559.00
Whole Amomit, $5933.00"
I and. there does not appear to be any further reference to the fenc-
H.

, ing, and therefore there is nothing said about maintaining the

I

i . . . . .

‘. fence. I have no personal information in regard to the law With
reference to the Dudley rightuof—way, or the Gay right—of—way
either. After a conference with my attorney, he informs me that

Attorney for L. 8: 11.,
some time since he was talking to Mr. PendletonAin regard to this
matter, and Mr. Pendleton said it was their custom, under such
circumstances, to build half the fence, that is, for the road to
build half the fence, and the party owning the land the other half.
The fencing along the right—of—way, referred to in my former letter,

has been pretty well burned down, I think, by your road any way.
However, I am perfectly willing to run my half of the fence along
the entire line of the right-of—way with Dudley and Mrs. Gay, and,
as I expect to handle a good many mules, I am willing to run a
fence according to the following dimensions, etc: A wire fence
56 inches high of ll running strands, with cross bars each 12
inches apart, with looks that will not slip, and all wire, the
strands and cross bars are to be of No. 9 galvanized wire. At
and above the 56 inch fence there are to be 2 strands of barbed
wire. The first strand is to be 6 inches above the 56 inch fence;
the second is to be 7 or 8‘ inches above the first barbed wire, but
on the opposite side of? the post from the other wire, with good
black locust posts every 23 feet apart, each post to be 9 feet
long, 6 feet of which is to be above the gromd, and 3 feet in
the around.
So, if it is your purpose to run this kind of a fence
and run half of the entire string, let me know, and I will proceed
to build mine, as I have a good fencer new building a similar
fence on another part of the place, and he will be ready to hangs

Dear Sir:- i
’ On September 11th, 1888, a contract was enterei into
between 7m . Palmer and the Keniucky Union Railway Company,by
which Palmen agreed to donate to the Company right of way 100
feet wide for railroad through his lenﬂs in ice County, and the
?ailwey Company agreei to fence each eiae of the railroad and
make ceitlegusrﬂc. Balmen afreeﬂ to execute a need for the
right of way when called unon. The Company built the fence along
the righﬁ of way line nnﬂ has mwinteined if up to this ﬁime. The
Kentucky Union Anilway Comoany ﬁid not procure a conveyance from
Belmor for this right of way eni on Aaron let, 1905, after it
had been fauna necessary to procure edﬂitionel right of way for
a cul eyt n hie lend, anﬂ for filling a trestle, a ﬁoea was
igé’fléﬁ
_ takenhto tie original and the additional right of way, the con-
sideration being 975.00, with a clause in the ﬂeei to the effect
that fhe $75.00 "includes not only payment for the land hereby
' conveyed, but also payment of all claims of first parties,
(Palmer enﬂ wife) against eeconﬁ party for injuries to adjacent
land for filling trestle No.93; for injuries to crop, orchard,&c.,
and for killing or injuring stock, and it is agreed to be a set-

tkement in full up to the date of this conveyance of all claims of
. said first parties against second party of whaveVer nature and a—

mount." '

A contract was also taken by the old Kentucky Union 7
Railway Compeny from Owens Crawforﬁ for rightof way on Ivy latch
with a similar provision as to fencing and a aeed was made by him
to that Company on December 8th, 1892, anﬂ §125.00 was paid to
Crawforﬂ at that time. A part of this land has since been pur—
chased and now owned by Vm. Palmer.

When the L.& N. began revision of the line from Ivy Patdx
out to Athol new right of way was purchaseﬂ eni the line in some
places thrown off ﬁhe original right of way. Palmer claims that
we are bounﬁ to maintain ihe fence, enﬁ says if we do not he will
sue to obtain nossession of that part of the old L.Q a. right of

‘ 2 way from which the track has been removed. I have has this met—
1 ter up with him for SGVQTal months. enl he has now agreed that if
R ; we Will build a new fence ani afterwards furnish wire, staples
: and posts, he will keep the fence in repair.

the latter basis.

Referring to your favor of the 22nd 111%. relative 1:0
fencing; near Lexington, 3’.-.V., désired by the Blue Grass Lumber
'Eompany.

Until the receipt of 11:23:. EEGDOWIell'S letter of ﬁpril
18%;, which you Ben’s me wi‘fzh your letter above mntioma and
’.:.hich I now rem-urn to you, I am not know that the question aub-
mitted to me by you had heretofore been passed upon by Judge
ET’ilson. But I have since brought the mt’tez‘ ’50 his attention
again and am handing you herewith his le‘aters to me of Jamil

5 25th maﬁa}; lat, tag-ether with copy of his letter to Mr.

Mobowell, date& March 4th.

As you will see, after mature consideration, Juﬁge
?.';ilstm has reached the conclusion mm: the Lexington 3. ﬁastem
Railway Company can ‘be compelled. after the Blue Grass Lumber
Compmy has oons’cructed its half, to erect and maintain one
half of the fence between the right-of—way and the property
now owned by 52119 Lumber Company adjacent to such right-0:?«vray
and that it is, by statuta, relieved of the duty of maintain-

' 1113 more 131% cm half of the forms on the south side of 121m

 \ ' i
W. H. C. v 8
track on the dividing line ”between that right of way am}. the
property now owned, by Barney Fo’csoh. Upon reconsideration I
have machete. the conclusion that the position taken by Juogo
Wilson is sound enmi‘ﬁhoroforo, the opinion given in my loav-
ter to yen of April 1%}; to the offset that Lexington 8» Eastern
Railway Company cannot as be compelled to construct and horo- .
after maintain one half ofi‘itho fence on the north sweet? the
righhofmay is Witheraim. i As stated by Judge Wilson. in—

' osmuoh as. after having constzuoted. the fence on tho sooth side
of the right of way the L. 8: Ry. Co. stood by and failed. to
see to it that the Lexington Lumber a» Mamrfaoturing Company did
not comply with its part of the imertaking we must now pocket
the loss entailed by ouch failure, except that ,oo stated, we can-
not be oompelleo to continue to maintain the entire fence on
the south 81:“ of the track, our on the dividing line between

Dear Sir:— ‘
Referring to conversation in regard to fence agreement with
Lexington Lumber & Manufacturing Co. for right of way fence just south
(east) of Seventh Street, mile No.2.
On investigation I find that the Combs Lumber Company in 1908
purchased the entire assets of the Lexington Lumber & manufacturing 005
including the land in question, without any Special mention being made
of this agreement. The latter Company have since conveyed the south—
ern parcel of this land (the part between the Winchestegjégd our track)
to Barney Fotsch and the northern part to the Blue Grass t3§§§r Co.,
\‘ without any mention whatever being made of the fence agreement which,
Kx£ as you will recall, was not recorded.
If you believe we cannot enforce this agreement and that the
Blue Grass Lumber Co. can legally require us to fence one—half of the
fright of way on the north side, I would like to ask if Barney Fotsch
foculd compel us to fence the entire right of way on his side under the
éagreement. If Fotsch could not, I believe the simplest way to handle
the matter Would be to enter into new agreement with each of the par-~
ties, having the same recorded- We would not be much loser under
the conditions,as fences on both sides were built in the same year and
about the same time. Yours truly, 4M2V5£Q9/

Dear Sir:
The attached papers relative to fencing on mile 2
L. & E. Lexington, are self-explanatory and are referred to you
with the request that you favor me with your Opinion as to the
L. & E. Ry. Co./€:i§§m§f?9§%%§dthe demand of the Blue Grass
Lumber Company. I am troubling you in this matter for the
reason that it is stated in Mr. McDowell's letter to mr. Courte-
nay, Chief Engineer, dated April 18th, that it is the opinion
of our attorneys at Lexington, that, centrary to view expuessed
' in my letter to Mr. Courtenay, dated April 13th, that the L. &

n E. By. 00. can be compelled to construct one half of the fence
along the dividing line between its right of way and the proper-
ty of the Blue Grass Lumber Company notwithstanding the fact
that,at the time the prOperty on both sides of the tradk at the
point in question was owned by the Lexington Lumber and Mann-
facturing Company, and the L. & E. By. 00. constructed and has
since been maintaining the fence on the dividing line between
the right of way and the prOperty on the south or west side of
