Title

[D8814ACL], Letter from John A Fenton to Thomas Alva Edison, May 23rd, 1888

Editor's Notes

I take the liberty of addressing you to ask if you can give employment to my brother-in-law who arrived here last week from London. He is an electrical instrument maker: 18 years old, a good lad, and I understand, smart at his business. He has worked in the Post Office London workshops, and comes here well recommended. I should be very grateful if you would accord him a personal interview. He is rather a shy youth, but I believe he has got great in him. # Thanking you in anticipation of your accepting my request. TAE marg: "Write that I can give him a job."
