Nicholas Wilcox Cundy, Inland Transit — John U. Rastrich (1834)
“ Mr. John U. Rastrich.—p. 147. 1. You have been a civil engineer for some years? I have. 2. You have had some experience in the construction of Railroads? Yes. 5. Have you gone over Mr. Stephenson's estimate? I have. 6. Have you been over the whole of the line of Railroad estimated by Mr. Stephenson? I have. 7. Have you taken pains to calculate whether or not the estimate he has made is correct or not? I consider his estimate a great deal more than what I should have calculated it at. ”
