;. Muirhead, Feb.26-3.7 time the directors approved of the bond issue and approved of the contract with Drill they had turned over the control of the Company to Terner who had introduced Drill to them, and the shares on which they qualified really belonged to Verner, 1 think this is, at least, getting us on the track, and that perhaps in/Spite of the loss of the Minute book, we may get enough disclosed to put them in difficulty. I have adjourned the examination a week, until the Trust Company look up the papers I have a&ked them for, particularly the stock certificate books and the bond register and the books of account etc, I have obtained a copy of the Drill contract, sworn to by the President of the Company, and the impress of the CoiapanyTs seal is upon t, although it is only a copy. Now, I wish you would speak to Mr. Owens, formerly of the Bank of Ottawa, a member of the Committee, and see how that fund over there stands, as I want to get say, 1250.00 on account of )enses. This case is get down for trial, and these examinations costing money, and that will be a reasonable amount to ask for. Will you please arrange it for me, Yours truly, ACM.D. A DICTATED but not read over by Mr. McMaster
