November 12th, 1900 Mr. W.L. Saunders, Vice President, Ingersoll-Sergeant Drill Company, Havemeyer Building, New York City. Dear Sir:- Your favor of the 9th inst with stated enclosure, at hand. In reply, I think you should not give them all motors for traction except street cars. I am working on applying it to a truck. Can't you confine it to mining or in some way narrow it down to the actual thing they want it for now and thus not tie us up, in case I should succeed with trucks, etc. Yours very truly, T.A. Edison
