The letter ia solf explana tory. "l?, December, 1915. "Dear Sir: - "Your letter Gth instant relative to obtaining old from Hie Unite;l States government for tho purpose of build ing a bridge across tho Savannah river has been received. Tho letter would have been acknowledged ear lier but it has been forwarded about from here to Abbeville and hack until this ls tho first opportunity I have thad to write you. There is no case on record where the government has built or aided in building a bridge across a navigable stream, or any other kind, unless thc government owned it. If tho government owns any at all it is where bridges are on government property such as tho Yel lowstone Park, etc. There have, beca many desperate efforts made to got aid from tho government In build ing a bridge across the Potomac '/.ero at Washington but without succoss. All that congress can do is to grant thc authority for the building of a bridgo across a navigable stream. If you wish a bil' of that t!:nractor pass ed lot me kuc . and I will have it done.
