Regarding the Ice Business In Syracuse, Syracuse, Ind., Jan. 23, 1912. . Dear Sir: We take this means of advising all the patrons of the Syracuse Ice Company around Lake Wawasee, that the Company now has its supply of ice for the season of 1912 secured, and will be in a position, without fail, to fully supply its patrons around the lake. This company is now owned and operated bv Robert Burlingame and Wm. W. Stetler. Last season the business was owned by Messrs. Waltz and Bowser, but after the dtose of the season of 1911, Mr. Waltz disposed of his interests to Mr. Burlingame of this firm, and just recently Mr. Bowser sold out his interests to Mr. Stetler. Mr. Stetler was previously associated with Mr. Waltz in this business in 1909 and 1910, and last season conducted the ice cream factory here and will do so this coming season, consequently he is experienced in the business and will no doubt be remembered by the majority of the company’s patrons. The present firm acquired the business with the understanding that they were purchasing the good will of same and would succeed to the business of the previous partnership. However, in acquiring title they failed to place restrictions upon Mr. Bowser and he is now threatening to start up a new ice business here in competition with this firm, although he has not yet secured his supply of ice, nor any storage for same, Shd we believe has not the capital to do so. He will probably endeavor to undermine and secure this company’s business with the Lake people and it is on this account that we detail these facts to the patrons of the company. This firm proposes to furnish ice to the people on Wawasee Lake for the same price as previously obtained, viz: 35c per hundred weight, delivered the premises and placed in the ice box, and in order to be assured of the liberal patronage and to forestall any unfair move by Mr. Bowser, we are soliciting the patrons of the company for their business for the season of 1912, at this time. We enclose a brief agreement which we would kindly ask that you sign and return to us in the enclosed self-addressed and stamped envelope. You will note that the Public Sale. The undersigned will sell r.t public sale at the Henry Hendrickson farm, 1% miles northwest of Syracuse, on WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 7th, 1912 commencing at 10 o’clock a. in., the following personal property, to-wit: 20 HEAD HIGH-GRADE JERSEY CATTLE One Jersey cow due to calf Feb. 4, one ’yrsey cow due to calf April 3, one Jersey cow due to calf May 12, one Jersey cow due to calf June 28, one Jersey cow due to calf Aug. 23, one Jersey cow eligible to registry, was fresh Jan, 25.

' agreement is drawn in the form of an acceptance to our proposal and when accepted obligates us to furnish you with all the ice required by you at the stated price. On the other hand it does not obligate you to take any stated quantity of ice, or in fact any at all, but if you come to the lake this season and require ice it assured us of your patronage. We deem this necessary on account of the facts stated and in as much as a liberal patronage from the lake people is necessary to the success of any ice business in this town, and we feel that having bought out this company, we are entitled to the business. In past years is has been very inconvenient at times for the people on the lake to secure ice and it should therefore be to your interest to patronize a permanent concern and be assured of a regular supply of ice, for as stated we now have the ice and are thoroughly equipped to deliver the same to you. As to our reliability and fair dealing we can refer you to the State Bank of Syracuse, or any responsible merchant of this town. Trusting that we may receive your agreement properly signed, and thanking you in advance for any favors shown in this connection, we are Yours very truly, Burlingame &. Stetler. The above letter is an exact copy of a letter the Syracuse Ice Co. have been mailing to people in Syracuse and out of town. To justify myself, I wish to state that when I bought the interest of Wm. Stetler in the Syracuse Ice Co, it carried with it his verbal agreement, which I can prove, that he would not re-engage in the ice business in Syracuse. A few weeks ago he began making preparations to again engage in this business, thus breaking his promise to me. When I sold to him I made him no promise whatever. lam in the ice business to stay. I have a large supply of ice all housed and am ready for business. Gentlemen of the Syracuse Ice Company—above all t hings tell the truth. H. A. Bowser.
