Dear Sir: Our Engine and Mills, made at
your Shops have been work nearly two months, and
fully meet expectations. The ENGINE as to FINISH
and STRENGTH, PERFORMANCE and DURABILITY, IS IN
rior to in the State of the class made here
or elsewhere. The Mills with smoothness and
speed truly astonishing In ordinary saving we cut In
common sized log, foot in 81 seconds or feet per
minute. We have run, however, through an 10 feet log
in 80 seconds e of 80 feet per minute, ty
running to the top speed fully believe we can cut 40
feet per minute. The only objection we have heard
urged is it takes many hands to haul up logs and
carry away lumber. Yours, Sc,
