c. CavarOc, Esq, President Barbarin Gas Light
Company:
DEAR sIR-Enclosed We take pleasure in handing
you q letter of MI. Michel D. Gaudet, manager OF
the sugar plantation Buena Vista, upon which the
Barbarin Gas Light has just been introduced. The
perusal of the same will entirely convince You of
the perfect success Of said gas in every respect,
proving itself fully equal to any other light in
use.
1t gives us double pleasure to indorse Mr..
Gaudets statement, not alone from the fact that
Buena Vista is Of the first places where this gas
has been tried, but more that, considering the
well known competency of said gentleman, his
judgment in such matters deserves the most i'm
plicit confidence and belief
The desire to do full justice to the excellency of
the Barbarin Gas, las prompted us to thus express
ourselves.
Very respectfully,

DEAR SIR-It affords me pleasure to state that the
operation Of the gas machine, for sixteen lights.
put up by your company in my dwelling, has
proved to be entirely satisfactory. Since the
second day Of October last the gas has been
burned nightly, at average of eight (Argan
burners) lights from early dusk until about eleven
o'clock, and one light all night. The light is, in
every respect all that could possibly be desired.
1t is perfectly safe and is superior TO coal gas in
brilliancy tho light being softer and much easier
to read or write by.
The simplicity of the machine is such that any
member Of my family can attend to itdurng my
absence

During the month Of December 1863, twenty-four
gasburners were used; twenty three nights OF work
constituted that month, and the New Orleans Gas
Company's bill amounted to $50 60. My oil works
are actually using twenty-six burners, therefore
if that number had been in use last December the
New Orleans Gas Companys bill would have been
&98 IS instead of $50 Co.
From Monday. November IA, to Monday, Novem-
Der 81, say six regular working nights twenty
gallons of oil were used in the Barbarin apparatus
% gallons at Csc, SO 90, towi per night 81 63ss
Twenty-three nights would therefore cost $7 Sc,
and consequently constitute saving of $50 SO on
the New Orleans Gas Company's bill paid in De:
cember 1869.
Ifo $98 Is there is economy Of $50 SO, 500
