Hon. Wm. H. Hooper

My dear Captain:

Are you familiar with the Law or Laws which have been passed by Congress in relation to the organization and regulation of Telegraph Companies, and can you refer to where I can find them?

A thorough examination of the Laws may induce us to make modifications in the existing organization of our Home Telegraph Co.

Respectfully Your Bro. & Friend,

Geo. Q. Cannon
