Dear Sir,
I have the honor to acknowledge receipt of your letter of the
22nd inst.
On looking up the authorities which we possess with reference to
the Telegraphs in America I found that I did not really possess
such information as I should like to furnish to you. I therefore
caused a service message of inquiry to be telegraphed to New York,
and I have asked for full information. So soon as I shall have
received a reply to this message I shall do myself the pleasure of
communicating to you the results. I trust that it will be in time
if you obtain the information tomorrow.

Put by, at once. As the information will be useful for reference, I propose to register the Correspondence, and have marked this letter accordingly.
