Your Claim L&E1l092, tracing movement of stove consigned to
little Shitaker, from Neon to filackey October 2nd, on account of which
he has brought suit for damage. It is correct that the stove was loa
in a car which was in train 10.50, in heedon collision at zone on the
above flate Which probably contributefi to the fiamage referred to. How~
ever, it may have been caused in the loading or u loading.

I call your attention also to the fact that the shipment was
made to Fess Ihitaker, who is our Agent at Blackey, and you will note
that suit has been brought by Little 3hitaker, a brother, evidently
for a purpose.
