Philadelphia, Pa.
Dear Sir:-
I have received your letter of 30th ultimo, in regard to the meeting of the American Institute of Meeting Engineers which is to take place next week at Glen Summit, and at which there is to be a discussion upon the commercial uses of concentrated iron ores. I regret that it will be impossible for me to be present at this meeting; I am so busy at the Laboratory my attendance is out of the question. Besides, I prefer not to say anything on the subject which is to be discussed until our Works have been in operation a sufficient length of time to enable me to give actual figures.
Thanking you for your letter
I am, yours very truly,
Thomas A. Edison
