Editor's Notes

LH The Ohio Edison/Cincinnati # received info from TAE on dimensions of building and asks why the cheaper lots cannot be used as they fit size, are solid, paved, level # Tiffin all organized and "a daisey to light" # hard work to get it closed, Hoffman and self took $5000 of stock, this investment is why he is so anxious to see it installed, asks for contract and estimate # "light goes in here under different circumstances than Sunbury or Shamokin, they do not want to wait to see it beem[?], they want their houses wired at once" and men are ready to maintain station # "Now Mr Edison I promised the light should be turned on by Dec 20th and if you will strain a point[?] for us and do it, we will be able to do big work…" # asks why more expensive than Piqua # PS to Insull to attend to matters "promptly and I will promise not to cause you any unecessary trouble that I can possibly avoid"
