September 17th, 1900
The Severy Process Company,
9 Murray Street,
New York City
Dear Sirs:-
Replying to yours of the 13th inst., beg to state we have had great difficulty in selling our product, and consequently have had to store a very considerable portion of it. The Iron Ore market to seeming to get worse, rather than better, we have decided to suspend about two thirds of our operations until after Election, and on Saturday last we laid off 225 men.
This explains the reason for our apparent slowness in settling your accounts. We will send you check for the May and June accounts at the earliest possible moment, probably sometime within the next thirty days.
Yours very truly,
W.S. Mallory
