looking over your Issuo of March 4th,
I see the question asked you, " Whoro
Is the military company that was organ
ized somo three or four uunths ngo, to
which some money was subscribed?"
In reply to that I would say that the
project was laid over until this spring.
Had not tho stoppage tnken placo it
would havo beon tried this month.
Another effort will bo mado next month;
If it fails then tho money which wns
paid in will bo refunded to thoso who
pnld It. I hold a few dollars In my
possession. The reason why it did not
succeed was thnt some officers elected
would not sorvo. Yours respectfully,
