Hon. The first engine bought, an 18
horse power, would easily cut from
ilx to eis(ht thousand feet of lumber
per day. The second a 12 horse power
engine would cut from four to five
thousand feet of lumber per day. The
third, a 20-horse ppw er, will cut eight
to ten thousand feet per day. I can
truthfully say your machinery is first

The 42 inch D. G. Corn Mill has given

Messrs Talbott & Sons,
Charlotte, N. C,
During laet April I bought from you
a 20-horse power Talbott Engine and
boiler for saw mill purposes, and imme
diately put it to work. I found that the
boiler furnished all the steam neccesary
to run the engine, and the engine run
with perfect smoothness, free of thumps,
and perfectly able to do all the work I
have to do. I have used several and re
gard the Talbott & Sons' Engine by far
the best made I find all the work done
im. the best style and finish.
I do not hesitate in s ying to any one
wanting a first-class Engine in every
respect te purchase of you.
Yours truly,
Benjamin R. Lewis.
