Samuel Insull, Esq.,
No. 44 Wall Street,
New York
Dear Sir:-
I have your letter of 27th instant, enclosing copy of correspondence from the Cash Installation Division on the subject of Carbon Brushes, and requesting that I direct Mr. Edison's attention to the same.
I enclose herewith copy of a letter with relation to this subject addressed to you by Mr. Edison 24th instant, in reply to yours of the 22nd, and would call your attention to the following words on the eighth line thereof: "than carbon ought to be used." These should read: "then carbon might be used." The error was caused in copying from Mr. Edison's notes.
Yours truly,
A.O. Tate 
Private Secretary
