[D8704AEB], Letter from Charles Edward Munroe to Thomas Alva Edison, October 25th, 1887

Editor's Notes

[U.S. Naval Institute, Newport Branch] Thanks for your letter of the 19th and the pump you sent; would have thanked you sooner but was trying to gather information re: your suggestion for signalling; 1876 report of Navy Secretary, p. 100, says that experiments with a single light were successfully made here by Farmer "using the flash system & also throwing the light vertically & wig-wagging"; observer read without error from six miles distant; will try to find copy of report to send you.
