Letter from William King, 12 March 1890
[end of sideways text] Laie Hawaiian Islands March 12th 1890 President Wilford Woodruff Salt Lake City Dear Brother Your favor of Feb 3rd was duly received and read with interest and all the sugestions offered will received due attention. we have not made a thorough exhamination of the old Boiler But in apperance it looks as though it might be repaired and placed at the end of the new Boiler and be a great saving of fuel besides increasing our capacity of Sugar making. On Thursday Feb 27th we had our new Boiler & Grate and other repairs all in order and put on the steam to see if all was was right. But as we had not every thing els and being in the middle of the week we did not start up grinding till Monday Feb March 3rd every thing was Satisfactory but little exhertion on the part of the firemen is required to keep up the steam and will burn fuel that the old grate would would smuther up and go out the new Boiler sits a little over two feet higher than the old one and the repairs we have put on the pumps and other parts of the machinery to save the steam we find that we can do as much work if not more now with 70 lbs of steam
