[LB022322], Letter from Thomas Alva Edison to Edward Hibberd Johnson, Edison Electric Light Co, August 13th, 1886

Editor's Notes

I enclose letter from Charles T. Porter asking if we can give him something to do. He is in very many respects a very good man. I do not know whether you can use him at all in connection with the uptown construction work. As to his capabilities, Mr. Emery should be a very good judge, and I would suggest that you communicate with him in relation thereto. ## I feel quite a great deal of sympathy for Mr. Porter, as I should imagine from his letter that he needs a position badly. Initialled by Insull.
