nwh Pittsburgh, July 19 1879 Prof Henry A Ward Rochester N. Y.

       Dear Sir, Your favor 16th inst rec'd

contents noted. Your proposition to bring an additional car load of specimens (samples of which are shown in Photographs) to our exposition meets with our ap- proval and I telegraphed you to day that we would pay the freight on it. I telegraphed you yesterday for the rate per car- load but received no answer, to day being Saturday I concluded to close the matter feeling satisfied that you had obtained a favorable rate. We will have the lumber and sash ready next week, in fact the lumber is there now and I secured the sash today to be hauled to the Building next week. I have ordered that portion of the galleries (which your exhibit will occupy) to be cleaned ready so that when you come all will be in readiness Very truly E. P. Young Genl Manager
