Spear Clashes Over Railroad Meeting Misstatements

In Americus a dispute arises as Mr Speer reads aloud a paper and accuses Kenny of misrepresenting a citizens meeting on railroad matters. Kenny explains the meeting was organized by Mayor Felder, not him, and denies accepting any railroad operation proposal beyond submitting received propositions. Proposals to guarantee $2,000 yearly for five years were discussed, with figures sent to Boston for consideration.

In a contested exchange, Thomas J. Kenny claims Mayor Felder and supporters seek to raise $1500 more to start operations while Speer disputes the ease of gathering backing.
