\nDear Sir:-
\nYour favor of the 9th inst with stated enclosure, at hand. In reply, I think you should not give them all motors for traction except street cars. I am working on applying it to a truck. Can't you confine it to mining or in some way narrow it down to the actual thing they want it for now and thus not tie us up, in case I should succeed with trucks, etc.
\nYours very truly,
\nT.A.
