Dear Sirs:

We have your letter of the 8th with enclosed plans showing design of combined tower.

The design and height would appear to be satisfactory. With regard circuits for lights and radio it might be ample to have 2-10 amp circuits. As certain as there is power there, the towerman would attempt to use a hot plate or beater at times when needed. (hand written notation - "wife or rug?"). Thus we would suggest that wall plugs be wired to accomodate such units.

We would appreciate being advised as to exact location of new tower in reference to existing one. If it is to be on existing site we would like to salvage existing tower.

We would also appreciate being advised of the terms and condition upon which it proposed the site be occupited.

Yours very truly,

MINAS BASIN PULP AND POWER COMPANY LIMITED
