WASHINGTON, Jan. 90, 1843.
Mr.. Joseph e. Hover: Sir: have made use of
your Black Ink sufficiently long to ascertain that it
possesses all the desirable qualities which are neces-
sary in the employment of steel pens more fully than
any kind of ink thatI had previously essayed, and
have got pretty well through the catalogue. Thavc
not taken the trouble to test it chemically, as this
has been already done by others whose certificates
arc as satisfactory to me though the experiments
had bsen made by myself

WASHINGTON. Jan. %, 1913.
Mr.. Joseph l. Hover Sir: have examined and
used part of the specimens of ink which youc with
me, and prepared to speak favoraby Of them
both. Since began to metallic pens, | have
never been able to obtain ink which would not moro
or less corvode, and speedily destroy them. Yours
appears TO be free from every corrosive Ingredient
The marking ink possesses, in my opinion, al the
qualities which are requisite TO give to the article
very high character Yours, respectfully a
