Summary
Letters, publicity matter, and printed copies of patents for a monorail transportation system invented by E. Moody Boynton (1840-1927). These papers were sent to William B. Lawrence, a principal stockholder of the Boston and Maine Railroad. Boynton was apparently trying to interest Lawrence in his invention. Included is a map of a proposed route for the Boston, Quincy, and Fall River Bicycle Railway.
