May 28, 1891 Thomas E. Connery, Esq., West Orange, N.J. My dear Sir:- I have looked over the descriptions of the Secer System of Marine Propulsion that you left at the Laboratory. It looks all right, but, of course, the only way to test its efficiency and practicability is by experiment. In regard to making an appointment to meet Mr. Secer, I regret that I cannot do this. At the present time I am so busily occupied, and my movements are so uncertain, that were I to make any appointments in nine cases out of ten I would be unable to keep them. Yours very truly, Thos. A. Edison
