6553 S unset Bltvd Loo Angeles Calif. mt w. m a i June 8 th '18 X . Mr Arthur Maguire Chf En'gr L«A.& S.L. R.R. Los Angeles Calif. D«3ar Sir:- Re'od a check from your Company for |261.4y4n settlement of the 10$ retained on the Pipe Line oontraot. Among Jme deductions was one to which I take exception most emphatlcally,and/that was for some $2 1 . for tools. As I told you before at the finish/f the job all the tools for which you have deducted were either lost/or stolen or broken or used up Again you refuse me credit for the 400/empty cement sacks I returned to the store house at Las Tegas. Since If had a receipt for the sacks ( your office has it now),and your c omyany t ertainly were paid for them by the Cement Co,the justice of witherVi\n gm l that money from me, is certainly something hard for me or any othe^/nan to ’understand,even though they were taken to your store house by mistake. I have written Mr Cregin but have had no reply from him.Part of those sacks were used on the pump house.,for which I had a direot oontraot with your -Company,so that excuse does not seem to be a very valid one. I tried to give you a square deal Mr Maguire, whet her you think I did fir not, and I an sore at the treatment you are giving me on the wind-up Very truly yours /O C / t n s & j Q rf~y(
