Title
[D8241N], Letter from George Harrison Bliss to Thomas Alva Edison, August 21st, 1882
Editor's Notes
Had intended to talk with you about storage batteries when in NY. In private houses, "it would be very desirable to be able to sore up a small quantitiy of current so that after the plant was shut down, say midnight, one or two lights could be burned during the bgalance of the night as needed." Do you have battery for this purpose, or know where it could be obtained? Mr. Doane, one of our directors, is having Edison system installed at his house---determined not to have gas service. Marg for draft reply [written by Insull] "very shortly we shall be able to supply you with a battery such as you desire."
