Dear Sir:-
Your letter of 5th instant was received by Mr. Edison this afternoon, and I beg to confirm the following telegram which he sent to you in reply:-
“Letter just received. I have not changed my ideas since first telegram. The furnace men are taking kindly to ore and we are shipping. All I said to Swarts was not to rush ahead too quickly. T.A. Edison.”
Yours truly,
A.O. Tate
Private Sec’y.
