I have thoroughly tried the Gin you sent me of
so Saws, having picked about 20 bales Cotton, and
can say that the Gin performs better than I have
ever seen in this State or any other. A few days
since after the Gin had been running from daylight
until IL O'clock, and without even stopping to clean
out, I weighed out 500 lbs. seed Cotton and the
Gin picked it in 43 minutes which is nearly equal
to 700 Id seed Cotton in elven hours. I am well
pleased with the Gin and can do more than double
work with it. Yours, &c. IN. PRICE.
