NJ. NJ. Murdoch, Esq, Wichita, KS:
DEAR SIR:-Have seen the fine display
from your place at the exposition and being
referred TO you by the gentleman who has it
in charge, venture to write for information
as to the prospects in your place for future
in manufacturing. One of my bsothers and
myself are in search of a location where
there is a demand for machine shop for
general machine work, jobbing and black
smithing. We are not adventures, but
mechanics who wish to invest our little saw
ings, together with our labor, where it will
not only make us a good living but be q
benefit to the community in which We live.
1t is my present intention to start west in
search Of suitable place early next month,
and had intended going to Lincoln, Neb.,
but am not committed TO any definite pro-
granme. In reference to myself, would
rather that others should speak, and take
pleasure in referring TO any, or all Of the
gentlemen named on the inclosed card,
which shows my standing in the Ohio Me-
chanics Institute. Hope you will favor me
with an early reply, and any information
you can give will be considered great
favor by Yours truly, JIG. DANKs.
We send Mr.. banks, who is an officer Of
the Ohio Mechanics Institute, incorporated
in 1929, all the information at hand, but we
say, come and see Wichita. We don't care
how many places he may visit with reference
to locating, or whether he comes to Wichita
before looking at any other point, or not
until he has looked at all other points, We
only say to him, come and see Wichita
