Title
[D8149N], Letter from George Edward Gouraud to Thomas Alva Edison, April 20th, 1881
Editor's Notes
Confirming your cable of 19th inst: "Only object selling United. Necessity immediate cash. Notify Batchelor return not later than May fifth. Very important." Sorry if any misunderstanding, but instructions in your letter so imperative didn't seem to have any discretion. Thought I had to sell quickly in declining market. Now your cable seems to imply regret I sold without being able to get immediate cash. Would you like to re-purchase United shares? Cabled to this effect.
