And Edison couldn't help him ! He had totally forgotten the circumstances under which he had received at least half his honors, and no effort on his part could recall the facts. So they were all put back in the case and, though they were subsequently shown, the exhibit was hardly as interesting as it might have been. But among the medals in the den are one or two which deserve a word. There is, for instance, the Albert Medal, which was presented to Edison by the Prince of Wales in honor of his ...father, the Prince Consort.

The latter is a document showing much grace of composi- tion and quite Chesterfieldian in style. The third communication is from Secretary of State Foster, and amused Edison not a little when he received it.
