Summary: This letter from Perkins Bacon & Co., signed by J. P. Bacon and addressed to G. de Brito, discusses a dilemma regarding the composition of gum for an order placed the previous day. The company explains they have shipped their supply for their own use and offers alternatives for fulfilling the order, either with a new material at a higher price or the original substance if the recipient can wait for manufacturing.
