Letter
Price Edwards to Mes, September 5, 1863
S. Price Edwards, esq., collector of H. M. customs, Liverpool, to Laird Brothers.
Custom-House, Liverpool, September 5, 1863.
Gentlemen: I beg to thank you for your note of yesterday’s date, wherein you kindly promise to inform me, by a week’s notice, of your intention to deliver to the owners the two iron steam rams now being built by you, in order that the government may be informed of their being ready for sea.
This circumstance will, I know, be satisfactory to the board of customs.
I am, gentlemen, your obedient servant,
S. PRICE EDWARDS.
Messrs. Laird Brothers.
