Transcription

April 25, 1892, 
Messrs. Seligman & Seligman, 
Mills Building,
New York City. 
Dear Sirs:- 
I return herewith the power of attorney for Portugal which you sent for my signature with your letter to me of 11th instant. I have had this paper translated and find that it does not purport to be a power of attorney from me, but only from Col. Gouraud, who has executed the same; also that the document is entirely in blank as to its important parts, that is to say, it grants a power to anybody to sell anything at any price. I will not sign a power like this. It must be made specific before it will receive my signature. 
Yours truly,
[Thomas A. Edison?]
