Sir,
   Yours of the 26th ult. to Qr. Master Genl. applying for teams to haul wood for this Company is received & endorsements noted.
   We are not now in want of teams as we have received those formerly employed in building the Piedmont Road.
   I am sure that your experience in transactions & negotiations with this Company enables you to refute the charge of parsimony brought against it by a man who never had a transaction with it in his life & whose charge is the result of ignorance of facts, and the preemption resting upon it.
Respy Your Obt Servt
Lewis E Harvie President
