R. E. Sunny, Esq.,
Western Manager, Thomson - Houston Co.,
Chicago, Ill.,

Dear Mr Sunny:-
Your favor of the 4th inst., is received.

I spent part of the last week with Mr Addison, and made an arrangement, subject to the approval of the street car company, with him, to equip two of the company's lines with your apparatus. Have since had to tell him that one of the lines must remain in status quo, on account of the city's intention to pave the street.

Have today written Mr Addison asking asking him whether your company thinks of getting out a gearless motor, as I understand that motor is more rapid than the single reduction motor. Also a little stronger.

Yours truly,
E. S. Babcock

November 9, 1891
J. S. Brown, Esq.,
Springfield, Tenn.,

Dear Sir:-
Please ship the Hotel Del Coronado three bbls of Robinson bourbon and three bbls Robinson County Rye whiskey.

Want the same kind as formerly sold us, a year or two since. My assistant managers have been buying from other sources, and I have concluded to go back to your brand.

Yours truly,
