First sentence: SIR: I have the honor to report that, immediately on the receipt of your order of the 29th of August, 1832, concerning the Potomac aqueduct, I communicated the same to T. F. Mason, esq., the president of the Alexandria Canal Company; and I soon after made the necessary examinations to enable me to determine the proper position of, the extent, character, and cost of the work.
