Dear Sir

Mr Martin Wardle, the bearer of this note, desires work on the bridges you are about to erect in Echo and Weber Canons. I take this meathod of introducing him to your favorable notice

P.S. I have already sent you quite a number of Bridge builders, and if you give them a job, they can employ themselves getting out timber &c. while waiting the arrival of the pile drivers.
