Catain,
I wish to make enquiry relative to the Steam Saw Mills in your vicinity which are owned by the Government: and under your supervision. Are they to be sold at auction. and if so at what time & in your opinion what price will they bring. What capacity or how many horse power is the lugine, and whether they are in good repair and good working order.

Any information you can give me relative to said mills will be thankfully received

by very Truly yours &c
J B Parsons
