Brooks' Paraffine Insulators - More Testimony.

WESTERN UNION RAILROAD CO'S

TELEGRAPH DEPARTMENT

RACINE, WIS., July 1st.

 

DAVID BROOKS, Philadelphia, Dear Sir: Having used your insulators for two years, I think I have given them a fair and impartial trial, and I would recommend any and all to use none other. I do not think their value can possibly be over-estimated as an insulator.

I notice no poles during these two years to have been struck or shattered by lightning, where these insulators are used.

Shall put on about 2,500 of the Brooks' insulators next season.

 

Respectively,

E. O. WAYTE,

Supt. of Telegraph.
