J.T. McWilliams letter to J. Ross Clark p 8

inquired of parties who have been in the timber, and all verified my statements so faras their knowledge went. Mr. McDermott has expressed himself to me as being satisfiedI have good timber and a lot of it, and has asked me not only to write out a carefulstatement of all facts connected with it, but also make a map of the timber tract and thecountry lying between it and your proposed railroad line. This I will do without any chargetherefor of course, as soon as convenient after completion of Las Vegas ranch survey.I do this very willingly and specially as Mr. McDermott thinks your brother Mr. W.A. Clarkwill have no objection to my retaining an interest in the tract and plant. respectfully yours J.T McWilliamsaddress Goodsprings Nevada
