Title
[D8914AAL], Letter from James Ricalton to Thomas Alva Edison, May 29th, 1889
Editor's Notes
I have lost the principalship of the Maplewood School which I have held for 1 years. Lost through my year's absence in India in your employ. Mr Taylor, president of our Board of School Trustees said to you that I mgiht lose my position by going on that mission for you.l Your reply was that you would take care of him" I made the trip--made it inexpensively, and found, I am confident--all that you called for but lost my position in School. A position, you know, is not easily found--have been out of employment since my return. Can't you use me in some capacity? Pardon this intrusion in your precious time. Yours truly, James Ricalton
