April 16, 1891. H.M. Livor, Esq., N.J. & Pa. Concentrating Works, Ogdensburg, N.J. Dear Sir:- Replying to your letter of 14th instant, you need not feel any anxiety whatever about the sale of our product. I saw Mr. Clarke, of the Lackawanna, and he astonished me by saying that he could use the material in his furnaces, and that it would not blow out; that the price of 7 cents was perfectly satisfactory; he wanted me to send 100 tons right on. I declined payment for the first 100 tons. He says that we will get a fair show and that they are prepared to use the material. I am doing some work for the parties to whom we have shipped these samples; it will take me there quite often. Yours very truly, (Signed Thos A. Edison)
