spring & other springs near by which
we have secured from other parties
will give us about 4,000. acres entirely
ours now. Then the additional 2500.
which we hold &{underlined} control{underlined}, but if we
sell any part of it then we share
half the proceeds will give us control
of say 6,500 acres. This with the
other grants is a magnificant domain,
to say nothing of transportation facilities
coal &c, &c.
I shall signify my {illegible: more?} {illegible: assent?}

Arrangements are being made
to take all the Beersheba {illegible: crowd?}
up the mountain on the Sewanee R.
Road this summer. The place to stop at
is Cowan just beyond the Tunnel. | 5[Mar 22. 1858]
