Dec. 21, 1891. R. Smith, Esq., President, United Linemen’s Association, 231 East 33rd St., New York. Dear Sir:- Pursuant to Mr. Edison’s instructions I am returning to you, under another cover, the one hundred tickets for the Annual Bill of your Association which were received in to-day’s mail, and which are referred to in your letter dated 14th instant. Mr. Edison objects to this method of collecting funds being worked on him; he says that if you will adopt the proper method he will be only too happy to purchase some of the tickets. Yours truly, A. O. Tate Private Secretary.
