March 10, 1891.
George F. Kunz, Esq.,
#402 Garden Street, Hoboken, N.J.
My dear Sir:-
It was only to-day that I had the pleasure of reading your letter of 20th of January last, in which you requested me to write to some Member of Congress, urging the appropriation of $50,000 for the Department of Mines and Mining. Of course it is too late to do this now, Congress having adjourned. Had your letter reached me in session, however, I would have very gladly acted upon your suggest to. The envelope containing your communication fell behind the table upon which the Laboratory mail is sorted each morning , and it was only unearthed and opened to-day. Regretting that your letter should have had so unfortunate an experience.
I am, yours very truly,
(Signed Thomas A. Edison)
