Gentlemen,
   I require as soon as they can possibly be cut.
300 Stringer flange rail 6" x 8"  18 ft long {900 yards, two rails} for the purpose of laying a siding from the M. & W. R. R. {Macon & Western RR} into my premises. Be rood enough to put your mills at once to work getting them out, and let me know by return of mail how soon the order can be filled. I will thank you also to inform me whether or nor you have any cross ties on hand suitable for the above purpose, or whether or not you can get them out very soon, and supply them.
I am Gentlemen
Respectfully Yours
