Editor's Notes

Your demo of electric motor last Tues so satisfactory, would like to put it in service on Rockaway Elevated Rail-Road [writer is prez], provided you can adapt & build it quick. Marg: "Write and say cannot go into building apparatus yet. The apparatus Road here is merely for experimetal purposes & can do nothing in way of biz until our experiments are completed."
