IMPROVEMENT IN RELAY-MAGNETS FOR TELEGRAPH-INSTRUMENTS. Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 114,657, dated May 9, 1871. To all whom it may concern: Be it known that I, Thomas A. Edison, ofNewark, in tke county of Essex and State ofNew Jersey, have invented an Improvementin Electro-Magnets; and the following is de-clared to be a correct description thereof. The object of this invention is to produce anelectro-magnet that can be operated with greatrapidity and accuracy, and capable of being-used as a relay or repeater for a chemical tele-graph operated by punched paper and a stilusor brush circuit-closer, or for a time-repeaterin astronomical or other observatories, or fora relay or repeater to a Morse telegraph-inst
