[D8952AAN], Letter from Samuel J Ritchie to Thomas Alva Edison, January 30th, 1889

Editor's Notes

"I would like your estimate of the cost of a plant for treating five hundred tons of iron ore per day such as you now are treating from Canada. 2nd. After the plant has been erected I would like to know at what price per ton you will treat these ores making the separation of both sulphur & silica. 3rd. How soon could such a plant be put up and be producing ore for shipment. Are you willing to take contract for treating large quantity of ore? If your process should prove successful out company would probably wish to central the right to use it in Canada and until that is determined would desire that no rights be sold to other parties in Canada. Your answer to all the above would very much oblige. Please write me at Akron O upon receipt of this as our company will have a meeting Satuday or Monday and I would like to have something to lay before them."
