New York City, Jan. 6th, 1892 Received Jan 7-1892 Ans’d Jan 9th 1892 Dear Mr. Edison May Meadowcraft use your name as stated in this application? If agreeable, will you kindly sign your name at the bottom of the first page where it is traced in lead pencil? The only Notary we have in our office is just leaving, so we are now absolutely without any. We use your name instead of ours because we think that the chances of getting the appointment are better if your name is used. Very truly yours, S.B. Eaton
