Mr. W.L. Saunders, V.P.
Ingersoll-Sergeant Drill Co.,
Havemeyer Building,
New York City.
Dear Sir:-
Mr. Edison has decided to practically rebuild the plant at Edison, N.J., taking two or three years to which to do it. We have decided, among other things, to change our Railroad from narrow to broad gauge, and locate our power and compressor house at a different place from where it is. This will involve moving the compressor which we purchased from you in December, 1898. It is class "A". 24" x 26" x 30", and if we could sell it at a price anywhere near what we paid for it, we would be glad to let it go and then buy a compound compressor just before our Works start in operation again.
We, however, do not care enough to sell it to make any great sacrifice, although we prefer a compound machine when we are in operation again. Anything that you can do for us toward selling it would be greatly appreciated by
Yours very truly,
W.S. Mallory
