Nov. 25, 1891. W. E. Cilmore, Esq., Ass’t. Manager, Edison General Electric Company, Schenectady, N. Y. Dear Sir:- We beg to advise you that we are sending to you to-day by mail, under separate cover, a small sample of wire treated with white compound. This compound is applied in a melted state to the wire and as soon as cold is ready for shipment. It requires no drying. It is required to be softer than the sample it can be made so, and we think the whiteness can be increased when the stuff is properly mixed in a paint mill. Yours truly, THE EDISON LABORATORY By Thomas Maguire
