Title: [QE001A342], Letter from Edward Weston to Scientific American, October 13th, 1879
Editor's Notes: Weston to editor Scientific American. Attempts to show mathematically that claims made for Edison dynamo in recent issue can't be true. Says the argumentht that its high efficiency are due to low internal resistance imply that TAE has "discovered something *more* than perpetual motion, and Mr. Keely had better retire from the field."
