Summary:
|
Letter to Daniel Ammen, Chief of the Bureau of Navigation, dated November 26, 1877 which acknowledged the receipt of a Bureau Order dated the 21st concerning specimen cylinders being made at the Pensacola Navy Yard's machine shop. By the time the letter was written, the cylinders were not finished but six would be ready to be shipped to the Coast Survey Office by December 1st. The letter itself is frail, thin to the point of transparency, and has been eaten away at some points by rust due to the iron based ink used in penning the correspondence.The page number of the ledger this letter was copied into appears in the upper right. Parts of another letter are clearly visible through the paper itself as well. |
