[D8227ZAU], Letter from Charles Lorenzo Clarke to Thomas Alva Edison, August 5th, 1882

Editor's Notes

"I am not reconciled to your idea of neglecting the full cost of lamps and entering the lamps replaced under the same heading as cost of coal." Thinks lamps shld go to capital a/c instead. TAE: "I strenuously object to lamps being put in as plant. One might just as well consider arc carbons as plant. In a business district if there are 22000 maximum there would not be more than 7000 extra. In a private House district there is 1/[--] burning You must have three times as much coal on hand as you use why not charge this to plant"
