Letter signed R.Q. Roache, California, Mo., to Col. N.G. Elliott, Boonville, Mo. I would be glad to know if you have reduced your ideas to a definite shape in regard to a company for manufacturing implements for the Patrons. It was our intention to try to induce some Easter parties to start a factory at your place, but if you prefer to getup the company at Boonville and own and control the business, it would be more satisfactory to us.
