To/ Govr McGoffin -- Dear Sir --

I am gratified to state that Mr. Poindexter is here and I shall take occasion to see your Excellency with him -- the actions I hear incidentally that the Committee will meet this P. M. at 3 1/2 -- where I do not know -- but I think that I shall have the time changed if possible to the Evg at 7 1/2 or 8' at Government House.

You will use yr judgment in regard to the question of water supply -- Mr. Poindexter thinks honestly there is a full amt at Cumberland I some estimates --

I still hold the contrary opinion there being no sufficientevidence to suppose any justification, so far as I can perceive or apprehend.

Respectfully, D. L. Dix
