- February 11, 1929 – JSA to Chris Smith & Sons Boat Company (Michigan)
Gentlemen:
Please accept my thanks for your “Care and Operation” book, just received.
I am told that you have ceased using a canvas between the planking on bottom, as shown on page 12, Plate 3. If you care to advise me in this connection I would be glad to know authoritatively if your construction has been changed in this respect; also your recommendation on a projector or searchlight for approximately one mile distance, including necessary fittings and connection on the board.
Very truly yours,
JSApperson
