Peyton, G. Letter to Ward, Henry A. (1880-08-31)

Aug. 30th 1880
Prof H. A. Ward
Rochester N. Y.
My dear sir
Your letter from Louisville
has this moment arrived. I shall
give the work on the Mammoth to
the painter of whom I wrote you, as
being in the end cheaper and better than
to have it done by [Clifton?]. He will begin
right away and if things work well
can finish the job. If not I will [stop?]
him and "await developments" myself.
In regard to the keys. I packed the lock
and both fragments of broken key in the paper
box myself. The small end must have
been lost when the box was opened. I
do not think the other broken key can
be found, so await more developments.

Peyton, G. Letter to Ward, Henry A. (1880-08-31)
