Title

[D8805AFX], Letter from Edward Hibberd Johnson to Thomas Alva Edison, August 30th, 1888

Editor's Notes

"You are worth some 2 or $3 [illeg] more or less. I am on the brink of financial ruin- ### At this stage you accept without question every story you hear then charge me with stultifying a record of 18 years by 'going back on you' and then in retaliation you turn and knife me without the slightest apparent hesitation. Do you not think I have earned the right to be heard before I am condemned to total irrevocable ruin." PS: "I wrote you for an apptmt-you don't reply-"
