| Dear Sir, |
| We hand you copy of letter from Fremont
Supt W&W RRd {Superintendent, Wilmington
& Weldon RR} on the subject of through freights,
including the Pig Metal about which we have already had some
conversations. We hope it may suit you to make a rate for
freights from the far South that will enable us to obtain necessary
supplies from that quarter, for unless they can be obtained it will
be impossible for us to supply our orders to Rail Roads or the
Government. |
| We are doing all in our power to keep down
rates, for while we are paying double and over for everything we
purchase, we have made no such advance in our rates & do not
propose doing so unless we are ??ed by others. |
