Mr. John T. Montgomery,

City Secretary, Ft. Worth, Texas.

Dear Sir:

I beg to acknowledge receipt of yours of the 26th advising
that at the direction of the City Counsil, you are instructed to ask
that the Texas & Pacific Railway Company erect and maintain an electric
light at Main Street; my remembrance is that there is one light on
Main Street crossing furnished by the city. It would seem to me that
the Railway Company and Street Car Company could afford to join and put
up a similar light on the opposite side. This, I think, would furnish
sufficient light at this point. Will take the matter up with the
Street Car Company the first opportunity. In any event, we will
arrange to comply with your request.

Yours very truly,

L. S. Thorne
