Title

[D8534F], Letter from William Henry Preece to Thomas Alva Edison, March 27th, 1885

Editor's Notes

I have received two letters from Mr. Davids, Campena, Brazil, complaining that he has written you about the introduction of your system there, but has not had any acknowledgment. He intimates that, unless he receives information very shortly, he will order all the material he wants from England. "It is quite clear, from his communications, that they mean business in that quarter, and that they are going to carry out electric lighting" and I hope and trust you will be able to give him the information he wants. ##I send you a proof of a paper I read before the Royal Society yesterday, giving full details of the experiments I made with your lamps. I hope you will be pleased. ##I was extremely grieved this morning to receive a telegram from Dr. Norvin Green announcing the death of poor dear old Stager.
