nation :
Mr. T. J. Horton, Supt. of Schools,
McDonough, Ga.
Dear Sir:
Replying to* your favor of the!
29th instant we are frank to say I
that because of the fact that the
Attorney-General of Georgia ren
ders an unsatisfactory opinion as
to the legality of the School War- J
rants we are having difficulty in
placing in hands of investors or
getting banks to carry them pend
ing sale, notwithstanding that we
have the unqualified approving
opinion as to legality by a leading
New York attorney who special
izes in bond issues.
We are using our bekt efforts
to overcome this handicap and
will take the warrants up now
ready for discount at earliest pos
sible moment.
Yours verv truly,
R. R. Berrien, Jr , & Co.
