Mr. H.M. Livor,
c/o George Place,
Equitable Building,
New York City
Dear Sir:-
Yours I find on my return here, and I regret that I was not in Orange on Saturday to see you. We have decided to change our railroad from narrow to broad gauge, and so have three locomotives which are for sale, also the cars. We have also decided to drive the new plant entirely by Motors, and will have several engines for sale a little later on. We are having a list made of these which will be available in the course of two, or three weeks, we hope.
Mr. Edison has decided to practically rebuild the entire plant of stone and steel, so that there is quite considerable of the present machinery we will not need in the new construction and as stated above, we will list all this as soon as we can get to it.
Yours very truly,
W.S. Mallory
