| Dear Sir, |
| I am greatly in want of more shingles, & wood
from Butler. Please inform me, when you can let me have, say 2 car loads
shingles and a train load of wood. I need the shingles to cover a brass
foundry, now waiting for them and much required in connection with
pistol manufacture. The wood is needed for steam purposes. An answer by
bearer will oblige |
| Respectfully & truly Yours |
