Sir,
   I send enclosed an order on the Superintendent of the Penitentiary for the two dozen axes required for the use of the Piedmont R. R. Please inform Capt Myers that the axes manufactured at the Penitentiary are of a quality equal and generally superior to the English axes which are on hand.
Yours Very Respy
