Feb. 25, 1890 F.S. Mastings, Esq., Sec'y Edison Electric Light Company, 44 Wall St., New York City Dear Sir:- I have your letter of 19th instant in regard to an estimate for a transformer system for the City of Newport, R.I. Mr. Edison is at present in the South and will be absent for several weeks yet. He did not leave instructions with anyone concerning the matter. Mr. Kenelly, however, has the blue prints which were furnished by your Company, and says that an estimate such as you desire could be furnished in about two days; but to enable him to do this it would be necessary for you to specify, so closely as possible, the amount of lightning required to be delivered, as the blue prints at present in his possession do not leave this point clear. Kindly let us hear from you in regard to this, and oblige. Yours truly, A.O. Tate
