T. J. JANNEY, Auditor H. V. R. Ke. Co.: 
My DEAR Sir: I had the pleasure of receiving from you some time ago a statement of 
shipments of coal over your main and branch roads up to and including the year 1875. 
Can you favor me with a supplemental statement of amount shipped in 1676, and six 
months of 1877? My report will go to press in a few days, and I would like to add these 
statistics. 
Very respectfully, 
M. C. READ.
