Dear Sir:

' Referring to your letter of’June 26, enclosing
a docket report and a copy of the petition, in the case
of Blaine snort & Co.\rll%, & N. Railroad Co., Breathitt
Circuit Court, wherein the plaintiffs seen to recover
£500 on account of the alleged negligent handling of a
shipment of live stoch mowing from Jacnson, Kentuchy, to

”” Cincinnati, Ohio. on or about February 5. 1915:

I enclose Freight Claim Agent Seger's letter to
me. dated Sentember 20, together with his file (L~224666-K)
containing papers covering the investigation made of the
movement of the stock referred to between Jackson and Cin—
cinnati.

As you will see from the enclosed papers, this
stock never did reach the Union Stock Yards at Cincinnati,
for the very good reason that at the time of its arrival at

‘{ Central CoVington the stock yards were under quarantine,
I g having been quarantined at 5:00 P. V.. February 5, 3915,
5 or, before the shipment moved out of Jackson.

When it was found that delivery could not be made

on the bill of lading issued by our agent at Jackson, the

 r:
‘1 31' s. M. w. 2 '
shippers were communicated with, and they instructed our
1 Genera] Yard Master at Central Coyington to forward the
. stock to the Cincinnati abattoir. (See letter from Waiter
Plat. dated August 12, 1915. addressed to w. W. Alexander,
our agent at Cincinnati.)
‘ While the file is sifent on the subject, I think
//we may safely assume that notice of claim, in accordance
V f with the provisions of Section 31 of our Jive—stock con—
‘1 tract. was not. filed at Cincimiati, and I think arrange—
ments should be made to take advantage oi" that fact in ‘
:"ytrying the case.
If there is any further information I can turn»
ish you with reference to this case. kindly adyise me
What it is.
Yours truly,
Assistant District Attorney.
