Mr H.B.Ayex'S, Director Gen'l Old Spanish '-^rail, San Antonia Texas. Bear barrel, I am pleased to hand you attached hereto Hew York draft for § 150.00 and am very hopeful of doing the same thing again in the very near future as Sur hoys have ggreed to give $ 300.00 as Pascgaoula quoto. On the 17th, I shopped in Biloxi and had a long conference with John Kennedy regarding the straight Bridge across the Biloxi B ay. Mr ^nnedy was kinder slow in getting the idea being of the imprsssion that such a matter was too big to be talk: ing at this time. However, I was very much please when Br ffeloh. President of the Biloxi Chamber of Commerce was talking in Ocean Springs on the 22nd, he presented to the Ocean Springs people this question of a streight bridge. You would have been surprised to note how they received this metter and I am very hopeful that we will be able to talk Ocean Springs in the idea of eliminating that grape vein road from Ocean Springs to Biloxi and get this SHORT and STREIGHT road now and not ten years hence. If it is not asking too much of you will you please write Mr Fred Taylor, Scey of the Jackson Board of Supervisors asking them to give me a pass over the P ascgaoula River Ferry. You can readly see that there will be more or less running up and down the coast froih now on
