Sir
Having received an [?] to provide [?] with the Steam Engine which you wrote to me about I now have to beg the favour of you informing me how it has to stand with the Boilers and whether the inner Bearing of the Fly which shaft has to be supported by a wall on cast iron – it would likely be as well for me to see you upon the place – if you would say when and what time I will attend upon you waiting your reply.
I am
For yours truly
