Title

[D8618A], Letter from William Henry Meadowcroft to Samuel Insull, January 5th, 1886

Editor's Notes

I think it would greatly interest TAE to see what can be done in the way of lighting and motive power by battery. We have acquired an excellent battery for these purposes, undoubtedly the best in the business. Do you think TAE would be sufficiently interested to call on our President, Henry V. Parsell, at his residence on Thurs. between 5 and 6 o'clock and see 24 cells of battery lighting lamps from 1/2[?] to 20 cp, and operating a good-sized lathe? If you could prevail upon TAE to spare the time, I think it would greatly interest him. ##I also have the pleasure of extending the invitation to you and shall be most pleased to see you. [TAE Marg.]: "Let some of the boys see it & report."
