- Editor's Notes
- We now beg to inform you that we have received the goods ex '6 shells' but they are not yet all unpacked. We are pleaseed with the various improvements and the general get up of the machines. Will you please ask the factory people to keep the mahogany color of wood work as dark as possible---approaching rosewood, as it is only the commonest articles in this country that are polished light. There is no explanation to be given except that of fashion and custom. ## In your letter to me of the 5 Sept you quote the following prices as being the absolute maxiumum: M [$110] E $50 T $45 {brace enclosing M and T followed by:] including one cell B[------] Batty or less $3## I will thank you to see that these prices are charged in future and that an amended invoice for the 50 machines & supplies is sent forthwith, together with a credit note for the difference. ## There is one barrel missing which please make enquiries about & let us know result. We have only rec'd 15 instead of 16 barrels & if not found charge up to shippers or carriers.
