GENTLEMEN:-I have DO hesitation In
saying that believe the great majority
of locomotive engineers have found by
experience that WALTHAM WATCHES
ARE THE MOST SATISFACTORY of
any for their uses. They RUN WITH
THE GREATEST ACCURACY AND
STEADINESS, Notwithstanding the
rough riding of an engine; and as
have NEVER KNOWNO ONE TO WEAR
OUT, they must be durable. hope to
see the time when railway companies
will generally adopt your watches, and
furnish them to all engineers and con-
ductors. In my opinion it would great
" tend to promote regularity and
safety. Yours respectfully,
