- Editor's Notes
- Referring to your favor of 19th inst I had two men working on accumulators for three months and I have given a great deal of time to the matter and the conclusion I came to was that accumulators are (in the present state of the art) of no value commercially. If I should at any time [start] anything in this direction I will notify you. My inclination however is to discourage the use of accumulators as I think they will rather damage us than do us good.##With reference to Automatic Regulators I have spent a great deal of my time for months past in experimenting with a view to getting a good regulator and I have at last got what I can [see] a really reliable Automatic regulator & one which I think will repay you for the waiting. I have now ordered those you requested me to sometime back as these will be the first made (except of course the model) there will be some delay in turning them out but I will see that the work is pushed forward as fast as possible
