Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. Not a book. Original bill. Printed folio. (5pp.). Introduced by Mr. Toombs & "Reported without amendment." This bill was to aid in the construction of what was to become the Minnesota & Pacific Railroad Company. Route of the M&PRR was to run "from Stillwater, by way of Saint Paul and Saint Anthony, to a point between the foot of Big Stone Lake and the mouth of Sioux Wood river, with a branch via Saint Cloud and Crow Wing, to the navigable waters of the Red river of the north." A 3/4 rear panel reports that on Feb. 7 the bill was read twice & referred to the Committee on Public Lands. The internet provides a couple of very helpful sites describing this history of this, Minnesota's first railroad. Condition: previously gently folded; The cover sheet is nearly split apart at the primary page fold. Else vg. A rare item.
