Sir:
I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your favor of the 18th Oct. 1869 and to state in reply that the contracts may include the material furnished and the bill for labor.

Please inform me at your earliest convenience at what time you expect to complete the building in order that I may visit Loudon to inspect the same.

Very respectfully
Your obedient servant
C.E. Compton
