\nMr. R.D. Casterline,
\nc/o The Central House,
\nReading, Pa.
\nDear Sir:-
\nYour letter of 21st instant, returning letter of Aaron Ruth, is at hand.
\nMr. Edison has requested us to forward to you the enclosed letter from Mr. G. Rowe, or Reading, Pa., together with sample of magnetic iron ore. Mr. Edison says that this is decomposed shist. Once before a man from Harrisburg sent Mr. Edison a sample of this ore, taken from a vein when he said was a mile wide and ten miles long; it was very high in iron. Mr. Edison wishes you to look out for this deposit; he is anxious that you should find it. Please give the matter your attention.
\nYours truly,
\nA.O. Tate
\nPrivate Secretary."},{"label":"Author","value":"Tate, Alfred Ord"},{"label":"Recipient","value":"Casterline, R D"},{"label":"Mentioned","value":["Rowe, William G","Edison, Thomas Alva"]},{"label":"Date","value":"1892-04-25"},{"label":"Type","value":"Letter"},{"label":"Subject","value":["Metals and minerals","Ore exploration and mining"]},{"label":"Folder/Volume ID","value":"LB056-F"},{"label":"Microfilm ID","value":"143:206"},{"label":"Document ID","value":"LB056377"},{"label":"URL","value":"https://edisondigital.rutgers.edu/document/LB056377"},{"label":"Rights","value":"Thomas Edison National Historical Park"},{"label":"Publisher","value":"Thomas A.
