ie - ' nett and E. C. Barnett v. L & 2 Railway Company and L & H Railroaa
. Company, and more especially to your letter to me of December 16;
, ' ‘1914, I have to oar that, after communicating with Mr. Williams, ,ti
*1 '7 Chief Engineer of Construction, and Mr. Warfiela, Eistriot Attorney,
’ A i am authorized by Mr. Killiams, under date of Eeoomber 29, 1914, ‘
i ’ l * to Settle this case at 9100.00 and costs in full of plaintiffs& ﬂ
oresont anﬁ iutgro damages. I am not aavisoa whether E. C. Gornett
’ is Matt Cornett's wife or not, or whether the two are brothers 0r
'” ‘ what thpér relotion may be. Acoordiﬁgly, in the Agreement, Release ,
‘1. Eahd Conveyance, which I have prepared and herewith hand you for axe;
' ,"oution by the plaintiffs as parties of the first port, I do not attempé
-H'_ j ‘to~indieete the relation betweoo these oarties.. If it turns out thst
. E. C; Cornett is Matt Cornett's wife, you will please so indicate. .
' ' _ in the Agroement,&c. before it is sxaouted ans make the some interpo—
_ ’ lotion in the Botsryls certificate at the and of the instromont. * ~ ‘
. I also hand you herewith a voucher for $100.00 and voucher— V.
v '4 receipt to be executed by the two Cornetts, with the Written oonour~ »
‘ renoe and approval of their attorneys of reoorﬁ. I would also draw ‘
- .‘ a short ordor ﬁismissing the case settloa at defendants'>GOSt '

‘ V The voucher, of course, is to be deliveren, but the voucher?
receipt should be returned to me, togethef with the Agreement, Releeee

' l and Conveyance, when both are properly executed. ; l

> » I - From what I know of Matt Cornett, I assume that there
’ 7 will he no Objection to having the vbueher paid directly to him.‘
A I regard him as an honorable and trust-worthy man and doubt not thet

V_} -“ ' he will make things satisfactory with his attorneys. Nevertheless,

. the attorneys should be reqoired to g1Ve their approval ant express-
ly and in writing to this mode of settlement. If there be any hitch
on this-point, it will be easy enough for you to so modify the ‘

Lvoucher, voucher-receipt and Agreement, Release,&o. as to conform
to the demands of the attorneys. I '
I hope you may succeed in having this matter finally
