| Capt, |
| In reply to your letter of
yesterday's date I have to say the blooms have been sent forward. The
pig iron is in a broken car at the Petg Depot, the Co will be able in
a day or two to furnish a new car for its transfer. In the mean time
please say if I shall forward to Capt Morton at Lynchburg the 5 tons
of the 7, before receiving the order which you state has been given
him. Please answer by next mail & oblige |
