Abstract

Edison to T. Puskas: I was very much surprised today by the receipt of a letter from my nephew dated from Paris, as I cabled him to some two weeks ago to return Edto Menlo Park as his mission was accomplished and I wish to say that if he remians in Europe he does so on his own responsibility and that he is not acting in any capacity for me. I will also caution you tht he has an ungovernable temper which when aroused requres aboonut 2 weeks to become calmed down. this is for your information and w I would not mention what I have written to him.
