Mr. F. IF. Bowden,
St. John's. Nfld.
Dr. Sir,
We hear fu>m Messrs. Hunt, Fourdrinier,
■ Ludgatc Square, that they have an order from
you for some time past for some of our New
Two-Reel Sewing Machines, and we regret
that we have not yet been able to execute it.
The fact is that, although the Machines
had made were perfect, we found that in nu,
ufacture some still further improvements could
Le made, which, it is needless to say, have
greatly added to the advantages and value of
the Machine. These matters have unavoidably delayed the njanufacturc ; but we are now
;n full swing.with the work, and hope to have
Ihe Machines on the ntaiket at an early date.
As yet none have becu sent out, so you will
not be forestalled.
The Machine is a perfect success, and will,
without doubt, have a very large sale. Your
crder will be executed at the earliest possible
date. Yours truly,
Tire Branston Two-Reel Sewing
