which Mr. Grcor refer told him Hint
I wna not a contractor, nnd that 1
would not handle nnything for the
city of Ashland except the engineer

mude the city council believe that 1

and the total cost Io the city for u
properly const meted plant whould not
have exceeded $10,000, iim stated
I above. These quotatioiiK from Mr.
Greer' letters are not of a nature to
indicate a bad opinion of mo as a

'It may ho trno that Mr. Oreer Is
correct when he cIihwwh mo uu a po
