Title

[MU024], Letter from Francis Robbins Upton to Elijah Wood Upton, July 21st, 1879

Editor's Notes

I did not write you yesterday as I was very busy. I had a chance to write something for Scribner's. There has been a series of articles appearing in the magazine about Mr. Eidson's invetions. This series was written by a young newspaper man from the New York Herald. He did not succeed in getting the electrical part of his subject clearly into his head and so did not write as clearly as was wished. The ditor brought the proof here for Mr. Edison to read and with his consent gave it to me to rewrite the electrical part. I hope to make about $20 for my work, though no agreement was entered into regarding pay. [rest of letter about awaiting Lizzie]
