Editor's Notes
Yrs of 26th rcd. No longer have lights burning [in Balto office] but get inquiries about it every day. "Even with the zinc battery we have scared the gas company so bad..." Bet a friend in gas co that lamp could take all current from a dynamo running 5 arc lights. Won bet, and friend sold his gas stock next days. Wardens of state pen interested in Light. I will talk with them next week; would be good to have a few lines from you.
