her tombstone:

And that took her life,'"

Sir: In my last communication to you in regard to
your six hfty horse power steam boilers, promised
give you at future time the exact amount Of saving in
fuel.
am pleased to be able to do now. as kept very
close and accurate account of the fuel used from Decem
ber 1861 to December, 1858, to compare your boilers
with The old ones, which we took out in September
1861.
The amount of raw sugar we refined during that time
larger than ever before. The steam pressure was
always kept Over fifty pounds, and were therefore
enabled to DO work in shorter time with the same
machinery and apparatus than. with old steam boil
higher than 20 TO 80 pounds
The actual saving in fuel during this time was lO7l
