Dear Sir,
   We are greatly in need of about 800 tons Iron for the repair of our Track -- portions of which are now in such bad order as to render it difficult for us to keep our Machinery in an effective condition. Can you do anything for us in this respect?
   We are taking on the Government Cotton to Wilmington, as it is brought to our Depot.
Yours truly
A. F. Ravenel
Pres.
