Dear Sir:-
With reference to your inquiry concerning electricity, addressed to Mr. Edison, I beg to inform you that at the present time no one really knows what electricity is. Mr. Edison, however, regards it as a condition of matter rather than matter itself.
Yours truly,
A. O. Tate
Private Secretary.
