Mr. J.B. Tonking, Supt
New Jersey Zinc Co.
Franklin Furnace, N.J.
Dear Sir:--
Replying to yours of the 10th inst beg to state I find that the three [illegible] cooks charged on your bill of February 28th, were delivered to you to use on your large rolls, January 11, but in consideration of the material you recently sent us, we have advised our people to cancel the charge.
Would it however, not be better in the future for each of us to charge the other for whatever little material or work may be done. I feel that you would find this more satisfactory, and am sure we would also.
I received a letter from Mr. Edison this morning from Florida and he asked me to learn how the machinery in the new Mill is running; also what part of it you have in operation, and the largest tonnage you have been able to get out up to date. I hope to write him early next week, and will be glad if you will send me this information, so that I may forward it to him.
Yours very truly,
