D ar Sir;
The middle of larch, i began the construction of a business blaock in ”ov:ton by day labor and it has taken all my time 3KBKXH.XX8E that I could spare from my other work and I have neglected the M H and ... h correspond once.
Bo my great sur rise the other day I received a letter from Mr Go ip '-"hich I answered- the first communication I have istiv ■: from him for many months- protesting against his in earring debts in .name of Z". II Assn.
Mac-aughton and Hobretson and Colp have been the whole thins almos t In Texas for sol.'time . Mac Laughton passed away last spring. Ha ch state division elects its own state officers I and Colp will not call at state meeting cf tge Texas division ~o continues as ’resident of Texas Division. .-.t the last meet lag of the International organization I was elected -resident Colp .Vice -’resident and-Mac Laughton, Secretary and Treasurer.
I called a meeting for July 16th at Salina, Mas to elect new officers but had to call it off sr- we could not get enough to come. I think I will call a meeting this fall.
i was very glad to get the clippings you sent me and I fully agree with you in standing for a few trunk lines rather following promoters promoting other roads for the pay in it for themselves.
i also approve your suggestion that the Spanish Trull follow- the M H to Mexico from San .rntonio throng Laredo.
Mr Colp shows the !' H -.asring through "Tichita Falls which route we abandoned for the direct route through Terrell Okia many years ago.
If you hear of any of his activlti-s that you think would interest me please let me know. He must not incur debts in the name of the M H or the !'. K is biowed up for we are not going to stand personally responsible for hie debts.
Tith all (jood wisher for your success I sa
Sincereiy yours	*	~
Thankr for^feii-s of A S T you sent ue
