Dear Dr. Allen:-

In connection with the above meeting we are advised
by the Norfolk and Western Railway that Mr. Joe Triner,
President of the association at Chicago, desires all
members to go to Cincinnati, using the N&W through Wins ton-
Salem sleeper leaving that point on "The Pocahontas" at
10:15 PM, arriving Winston-Salem 2:00 PM the next after-
noon. This sleeper contains lowers, uppers, and bedroom
accommodations for one or two persons. They anticipate
enough members will attend to warrant the operation of
a special sleeper from Cincinnati September 7th.

You can leave Chicago 1:45 PM or St. Louis 12:05 NN
via New York Central System, arriving Cincinnati 8:55 PM,
in ample time to connect with the above service.

Your local ticket agent will be pleased to quote
you fares from your city to Winston-Salem, and also train
schedules to either Chicago or St. Louis. As a matter of
information the lower berth rate Cincinnati to Winston- ~
Salem is $4.50; upper $3.40; bedroom for one $8.05; bedroom
for two $8.95.

‘Will appreciate your advising whether or not you will
attend this meeting, and if so space desired from Cincinnati,
so that members from this territory can be located in the
same sleeper.

If we can furnish additional information or be helpful
in any other way, please command us.
Yours very truly,
