[LBCD7040], Letter from Samuel Insull to Ohio Edison Electric Installation Co, Archibald B Stuart, July 22nd, 1884

Editor's Notes

We want to settle your account. "If the material is to be returned we want it returned immediately and if it is going to be retained we want it paid for immediately." Our prices are not "outrageous" as you charge. "We are closing out the Construction Dept. and it is but natural that we should desire to know just where we stand.." "You have an entirely erroneous impression if you think that we want to grind the four or five plants that we have put in to dust." "Mr. Bergmann can get all the work he wants at absolutely his own prices without ever going after it, whereas opposition concerns are all the time trying to compete with him, and strain every nerve to get their orders. These remarks apply to work of an abosolute standard characters--telegraphic and telephonic work." "I am engaged in the thankless task of closing out business [----] the Construction Dept." xxx use annotation for LBCD7051 dh 23oct06 xxx
