[TAE Marginalia] >Don't bother with the Clay E< New York Dec 6th 1901 Thomas A. Edison, Esq., Orange, N.J. Dear Edison:- Enclosed find letter received this morning in answer to my letter asking him to send two or three lbs. of clay from the mine. Of course I only wanted to find out whether there is any clay there or not. Either I or some one else would have to go to see whether there is a bushel or several miles before doing anything, and it was simply to save the trouble of running and hunting, I wrote him. Can you make any suggestions. Yours truly, W. Preston
