I find nothing about S/N 2625 in the order book database, there is however a record of the gun in the stock book. Either Ron Kirby or Mark Conrad wrote the letter, it's not in the letter archive. I don't know how the letter could state it was sent by Parker to Lefever if it's not in the order book database as to having an entry in an order book. It is a 11ga. with 2 sets of barrels. It looks like the barrel steel is listed as "iron." About the only thing really clear is the S/N, LOP, barrel lengths, and weight. All the names of individuals are very faded out and I'd be hesitant to state a name/names in a letter. It looks like it would be called a Quality D in later times but back them they just called them Dollar Grades but since there is no record in the order books listing what the price was, it's just a guess.
