March 7, 1890 To Whom It May Concern,- This is to certify that Fred Krais, who I understand is at present a prisoner in the jail at Trenton, New Jersey, worked a number of years in my Laboratory at Menlo Park, N.J., and also at Newark, during which time I found him to be trustworthy and honest. Were Mr. Xrais liberated, and desired to enter my Laboratory as Machinist, in which capacity he served me before, I would have no hesitation in employing him. Thomas A. Edison
