  GRIFFIN TO BENEDICT, JANUARY 7, 1910

  January 7/10
  Mr. Lorenzo Benedict,
  Worcester Salt Company,
  168 Duane Street, City.
  My dear Mr. Benedict:
  Immediately after talking with you on the telephone this morning the enclosed letter came from Mr. Wagner, Mr. Woodruff's letter of last night enclosing copy of proposed letter to Mr. Eaton and Mr. Wagner's letter having crossed. Mr. Woodruff has not had a chance to read the enclosed and I will appreciate it if you will return the same to me immediately after reading.
  Mr. Woodruff is going to Albany on the 19th, and in all probability wil go up on the Empire, as he has promised to attend a meeting of the State Agricultural Society. He will go to Syracuse that evening in order to attend the Pneumelectric meeting on the 20th. Will you be kind enough to ascertain if Mr. English is going and if so, don't you think you had better engage a stateroom for the night of the 19th to Syracuse? Mr. Woodruff would like to have you both go, if it is possible.
  Yours very sincerely,
  Secretary.

  My dear Mr. Benedict:
  The latter part of last week I ordered sent to Mr. Woodruff two tons of agricultural salt. If this has not been shipped, will you kindly have sent also 500 pounds of ice-cream salt and four 56 pound bags of Worcester salt. Even if the agricultural salt has been sent, I think you had better send, by freight, the other salt referred to.
  Yours very truly,
  Secretary.

  December 30/09
  Mr. Lorenzo Benedict,
  Worcester Salt Company,
  168 Duane Street, City.
  My dear Mr. Benedict:
  For your information, I am quoting from a letter received from John Woodruff this morning:
  "By the way, our annual Stockholders meeting comes the third Wednesday in January, or the 19th. I will send out notices tomorrow to that effect. I think it is important, most important, for you to be here and if that date is not convenient we will have to consider an adjournment. I hope Mr. English will come. You might suggest it when you see him. We will at that time arrange for the issue of stock. I have it fixed up with Page.
  With 3 machines gone today, we have shipped 30 this month and should get two more before Saturday.
  Nothing new in the way of orders. John leaves tonight for B.R.&P. That situation is most puzzling. It has acquired a more hopeful aspect from that fact that we have had a man on the job doing nothing but take records of the cutting done by the air machines. The people at the mine are bucking us at every turn and put it up to our machine to cut as much as the air machine or get out. They have always represented that the air machines averaged 100 feet per shift of 10 hours. We soon found we could not average more than 90 feet under the best conditions but now we find that the air machines barely average 75 feet per 10 hours, so we are much encouraged. Our man is most trustworthy who took the records so his figures are to be relied upon. With these figures for a weapon, John is going after them hard, especially as they have been blocking our runner in every way possible for the past 10 days so he cannot get enough territory to work in to keep busy more than half the time. Either the people there have been bought up or they are too lazy to relish the job of changing from the old to the new. As a last resort, we have Robinson, the President, who favors electricity but who is now abroad."

  July 24/09.
  Mr. Lorenzo Benedict,
  Worcester Salt Company,
  168 Duane Street, City.
  My dear Mr. Benedict:
  I am in receipt of a letter this morning from Mr. Woodruff in which he said that he had received your letter of July 16th, in which you say that you are going to entertain the jobbers' salesmen of Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont at Portland on Saturday and Sunday, September 11th and 12th and inquiring if Mr. Woodruff can spend either Saturday or Sunday with them.
  Mr. Woodruff is under the impression that the State Fair will be held on these dates. If so, he can probably arrange to go from Syracuse right through to Portland. He wanted me to tell you that he would certainly arrange it if he could. Mr. Woodruff is to be in the City on August second just for a day. You ask if you may sign his name to the subscription list for the stock that is due his under the terms of the syndicate agreement. Mr. Woodruff in his letter to me did not say anything about this; but it will be all right, I am sure, for you to sign its name to the subscription list for the stock.
  Yours very truly,
  Secretary.

  My dear Mrs. Ward:
  Mr. Woodruff has received a letter from a man named King of New Haven, relative to the cleaning of monuments or stones in the Woodruff plot. The man says the stones are in pretty bad condition and ought to be cleaned. I spoke to Mr. Woodruff about this letter and he said that he would leaver the entire matter to you to do as you thought best. I am, therefore, sending you Mr. King's letter.
  Yours very truly,
  Secretary.

  8th Ave. & 18th St.,

  My dear Mr. Farnham:
  As per telephonic communication of this morning, please draw a check to the order of Burr McIntosh for $169.50. This amount excludes the bill of February 18th, about which there has been some question and which I have marked not to pay. I am enclosing John's letter to me as a reference which please attach to the bills. You will see that John says he did not order two sets of pictures, one of Feb. 18th and another on February 19th.
  Mr. Woodruff told me that if Mr. McIntosh requested a check, to have you send it, deducting for the bill in question.
  Yours very truly,
