My Dear Sir -
Yours of 23d ult came while I was away, and has escaped my notice till to-day.

I called on Messrs Chamberlain and learned that they had rec'd your order and replied to it — That the apparatus you desired was in process of manufacture and would be delivered before the close of this month.

If I can serve you further let me know.

Cordially
J.H. Chapin
