Scope and Content

Letter to Fitzgerald & Lee, Inc. from William H. Linkroum Transcription: [William Linkroum letterhead] Dec. 1/34 Dear Mr. Lee: Thanks for your newsie letter. When it comes time to put the front side piece running from the cabin to the stern of the new boat I think it would look better if it started higher at the cabin and end up gradually tapered to the stern as so many of the bot mfg's are doing now. Like this [diagram annotated "higher here than here"]. Hope you understand what I am driving at. It might be well for you to send me a small sketch showing what you propose to make it look like so I can O.K. it. I do not know what you call that side piece. Wish the Great Lakes were getting the rain we have been getting for the past week, I am surethe river would rise several inches. Let me know what Hancock says about the wheel. Best to all, Yours truly W.H. Linkroum
