                                       - 12 -                                         

                       cost.  Construction of the roadway                             
                       will now require the installation of                           
                       an approximately additional 3,442.08                           
                       feet of five strand fencing.  The                              
                       "cost to cure" amount in your offer                            
                       is, therefore, incorrect.  I am in the                         
                       process of obtaining an estimate for                           
                       the cost of the additional fencing and                         
                       will advise you as soon as I receive                           
                       it.                                                            
                       4.  I understand that I am entitled                            
                       to obtain an appraisal of my own                               
                       and that the county is required to                             
                       reimburse me for the cost of that                              
                       appraisal.  I have been advised that                           
                       such an appraisal can run as much as                           
                       $4,000.00-$5,000.00.  If you will                              
                       adjust your offer to $20,000.00 per                            
                       acre and make a reasonable adjustment                          
                       to the "cost to cure" to allow for the                         
                       additional fencing, then I will forego                         
                       the additional appraisal.                                      
                  I trust that this provides you with as much                         
                  information as is currently possible.  I will                       
                  provide you with further information as soon as                     
                  I am able to obtain it.  If you have any                            
                  questions in the meantime, please let me know.                      
                                           Very truly yours,                          
                                                /s Dan L. Sirmans                     
                                           Dan L. Sirmans                             
             CC: Mr. John W. Lawson, Esq.                                             

             In response, Mr. Caruthers wrote the following letter dated              
             May 28, 1991:                                                            

                  I have reviewed your proposal for the above                         
                  referenced parcel, and it appears to be an                          
                  equitable settlement.  We will be looking                           
                  into the cost of fencing and get back to you
