July 28, 1891.
Mr. George F. Atwood.
N.J. & Penn’s. Concentrating Works,
Ogdensburgh, N.J.
Dear Sir:-
The casting of the 300 h.p. Condenser is finished, but it does not look good. It has three defects, as follows:

There is a small piece of flange.
S small blow hole in other flange.
The core of shaft seat for regulating valve is half an inch out of centre.
What will you do this casting? Accept it, or have them make a new casting. In order to make a new casting it will be necessary to revisit the whole pattern.
Yours truly,
John Ott.
M.
