The writer, James F. Van Natta, writes to The N. N. Hill Brass Co. of East Hampton, Massachusetts, regarding a damaged Sterling Bicycle Bell No. 400. He explains that the bell was damaged in a collision, the top came off, and the clapper was lost. He asks the company to send a replacement clapper, promising to return payment by return mail. His Indianapolis address at 203 North Illinois Street is included.
