adds;
no
I have some reason for believing thata
very advantageous arrangement may be
made for taking $3 rn Let
me have an accurate and reliable state-
ment of your financial condition, and I
can do something. I feel very sanguine
with Thomas A. Scott, I think you will
not deem me voreasonable when I again
and persistently urge that I ought to
have good notes for the $25 000, and that
I onght also to have $52 000 bonds, which
were yourself and Mr. Caldwell
the express basis of the $25,000 loan. 1
do not believe your company has a
stronger or more equitable and legal
claim than mine, while its personal hard-
shipe to me are bitter and burning, and
hamiiiating to the last degree,
On April 21, 1871, Blaine writes to Jos,
Caldwell :
My dear Mr. Caldwell ;~On 29 inst, the
gecond note of the loan I negotiated in
December falls due, The first for $2,032.50,
which fell due March 1-4, I was eompell-
ed to meet at the gravest possible incon
venience to myself. 1 drew on Mr, Fish
er for the amount but he declined to no-
tion the draft, The note which falls due
on the 20th instant is for $2,578 It
secms extremely hard and upjost that I
shoald be compeiled to pay this imoney.
it is no more my debt than tho debt of
President Grant or Queen Victoria, and
I cannot believe that you and Fisher,
both or either, intend to leave this bur
den on me, If yon do it will erush me.
have no possible means wherewith to
meet these notes, and I beg of yon and
Mr. Figher, either or both, to come tomy
relief.
In’ a letter from Fisher, under date of
Jan, 4, he writes as follows ;
“In regard to the $25,000 which yon
borrowed and loaned to Mr. Caldwell, or
rather Mr, Pratt, ng it was assumed by
Mr. Pratt becasse you received from him
$50,000 land honds for the amount, upon
my visiting the office for the first Hime
after vou left the city, Mr. Pratt said he
and Mr. Farrington gave 10 you their in-
dividual bonds and they kept the money,
and in order to obtain the money and
get it ont of Mr. Pratt's hands, 1 obtain.
ed $50,000 land bonds, and took what 1
supposed to by money, but it was not
there. Part ol it bad been misapplied to

ponds to others, but taking into
the $100,000 you sold to Tom
Scott, and the amoant yon received on
the Eastern contract, our relative posi-
tions financially in the Little Rock & Ft.
Smith road bear a wide contrast, :
In reply to Blaine’s of April 13, '72, al-!
ready published, Fisher wroteas follows :
My Dear Blaine: —Y our favor of 13th
instant reached me this moming. I am
surprised at its contents, I have loaned
You at varions times, when vou were
comparatively poor, very large sums of!
money and never have you paid me one!
dollar from your own pocket, either
principal or interest. I have paid sundry | opr
amounts to others to whom you were in-|
debted and these debta you haveallowed |
to stand unpaid, like the notes I hold, 1
have placed you in a position whereby |
you have received very large sums of|
money without one dollar of expense to| Expr
you, and you ought not to forget to act] "5. "01
on my part. Of all the parties connected [trains on
with the Litile Rock and Fort Smith road |W. K
no one bas been 80 foriunate as ®
yoursell in obtaining money ont]
of it. You obtained sabscriptions from |
your friends in Maine for the building of | *
the Little Rock and Fort Smith road.!
Out of their snbseriptions you obtained a
large amount both of bonds and money
free of cost to you, I have your own fig-
ures and know the amount, Owing to!
your political position you were able to
work off all your bonds at & very high
price, and the fact is well known to oth-
ors ns well as myself, Would your friends
in Maine be satisfied if they knew the
facts? Are my associates satisfied to have
you obtain 825,000 for the Northern Pa«
cifie railroad, and you not make the in-
vestment as per agreement? By the
course yon have thought proper to take in
regard to my request is rathera poor one,
teking your relations with me, and I
again ask yon to consider it and grant it.
You will find it mach easier to pay by
obtaining the credit, and 1 selected that
course thinking it to be the best. If you
again decline 1 shall bo obliged fo use
the notes or sell them to outside purchas-
are. Novessity knows no law,
