Title

[D8704ADW], Letter from B G Miller to Thomas Alva Edison, October 22nd, 1887

Editor's Notes

Enclose diagram of electric motor and galvanic battery I've had in the office for awhile but seems to have short circuited; am an old manager of Western Union [?] here [Dakota]; am continually experimenting with electricity on small scale, and use this motor and battery base; if I send them could you repair them?; do you have an old book on electricity you could send me; have been in the Biz 10 years, formerly taking Cincinnati report at Milw.; met an oldtimer named Madison who worked in Boston when you first entered the office and worked NY quad who said I might get a good book from you; if you can locate trouble in apparatus will send by express; [diagram enclosure included].
