Esq. contractor for the eastern section of the Chesapeake and Delaware Canal, from Judge Wright, engineer in chief, and the majority of the board of directors, : (among other things by the gross and palpable violation of the contract, in the iniquitous reduction of the prices which were fixed when that instrument was signed, sealed and delivered.) : Whereby the contractor has been ruined; the completion of that great national work will be very considerably delayed; and the interests of the state and of the stockholders of course materially injured. : [Four lines of quotations]
