Blacknails--
The Sea awaits us. We need your supplies from the North. Strip everything: every railroad pike, every waterbucket. We need metal. A shipment is due from BB but long overdue. Come through for me, Blacknails. Send your supplies directly to the "barn" this time. No time to squander.

The person known as "Blacknails" is only mentioned in this note, nowhere else in the game. He/she appears to be well-known by VanCleef, trusted with "coming through" for him while other suppliers have not. Details may become clearer in Cataclysm, as Deadmines will be an instance with a heroic setting. However, whether or not this means the Deadmines storyline will progress remains to be seen.
