Sir.
I have the honour to søknowledge the receipt of
your letter No. 684/8/18 of the 20th. instant, requesting me
to forward you a cheque for $20,000 from the balances
standing to the credit of your Section in our hands.
I would however remind you that our claim against
your Section for $5,334.79 incurred in 1923 for hire of
rolling stock, agreed to by your Seation, remains uneon-
firmed by the Managing Director, and that our claim for
$11,438.16 on account of suspension of traffic this year
remains unsettled.
I am directed to enquire whether you could kindly
see your way to settle these two claims as soon as possible
when the balance of approximately $9,000 due to your
Section could be forwarded to you without further delay.
I have, ete.
(SIGNED) KOBERT BAKER.
