Title
[D8828ADL], Letter from Edison Electric Light Co, Frank Seymour Hastings to Arthur Edwin Kennelly, November 26th, 1888
Editor's Notes
"Dr. Peterson and Prof. Doremus have asked Mr. Brown where they could kill a horse by the alternating current. They have a subject ready, and I think that he can be removed to Orange at any time. May I trouble you to call me up on the telephone tomorrow, immediately upon receipt of this letter, advising me whether you can undertake this and at how early a date. This is a matter of very great importance as the experiment is partly with a view to determining the voltage in connection with the new method of capital, punishment, and I shall be greatly obliged for any assistance rendered." Yours very truly, F.S. Hastings, Secty & Treas.
