There has been some mistake about the hoops, I recv^d from ou a few days ago. I thought when I gave the order, that I was ordering hoops for 100 lbs. & 50 Hhd. [?]. I find I have hoops for 150 lbs & no Hhd. Hoops. I would therefore thank you to let me have hoops for 50 Hhds. as soon as you can. I do not exactly know the sizes & lengths but by looking over your orders you can ascertain that fact== Please write me upon the subject immediately & again when the hoops are ready & will send up for them.

I am respectfully your

P.S. Please let the hoops be as strong as you sold for any of yr.[?] customers.
