Dear Sir,
   I have yours of the 11th in relation to the new cars.
   Will you please intimate to me the probable cost of the new cars. What kind of trucks & springs &c.
   I would like to know something about them before purchasing.
   I am endeavoring to make an agreement with the two Western Roads {probably the Western North Carolina RR and the Charlotte & South Carolina RR} about trains, and hope to succeed.
Very Respectfully
Thomas Webb
