| Sir, |
| I see by an advertisement in todays paper
you want eighty (80) thousand shingles. We have them on hand and if you
can procure transportation can ship them immediately. We have furnished
the Government about 400000 at $40.00 per M. We will send you a sample
by express tomorrow (Friday). |
| If you want them let us know soon as we
have several orders from private parties. |
