Martin did not announce that at Christmas Marconi had sent Edison a “cheerful telegram” reiterating his success and offering to display personally to the master his transatlantic equipment or that Marconi was already tendering Edison offers for his early wireless patents.10

The New York Times reported “cheers when the toastmaster came to a letter from Nikola Tesla who said that he ‘could not rise to the occasion.’”11 No doubt, they masked the jeers. Grinning through his oversized mustache, Martin waited for the clamor to subside before continuing with the rest of the letter:

I regret not being able to contribute to the pleasure of the evening, but I wish to join the members in heartily congratulating Mr. Marconi on his brilliant results. He is a splendid worker, full of rare and subtle energies. May he prove to be one of those whose powers increase and whose mind feelers reach out farther with advancing years for the good of the world and honor of his country.
