Editor's Notes

[James Blaine] Thanks for your esteemed favor; must regretfully decline invitation. "Having completed the experiments on my system of electric lighting I have removed into New York with the object of personal superintending its development. It is imperative that this should receive[?] my immediate and undivided attention and am therefore reluctantly aobliged to refuse the very flattering offer you are so good as to make." Have telegraphed you to this effect.
