[D8954AEO], Letter from Dyer and Seely to Samuel Insull, December 24th, 1889

Editor's Notes

[This is an enclosure to D8954AEN] My dear Mr. Insull:- We were not able to furnish you the estimate as to what Col. Gouraud has paid on foreign phonograph patents yesterday, since I took the entire day to collect the date even for an approximately correct estimate.##We have sent Col. Gouraud papers for seven cases. He had reported to us having taken patents in quite a long list of countries, 22 in number. Our reports from him do not know whether he has filed all the cases in all these countries, but assuming that he has, or that he intends to, we estimate the cases he has actually reported to us as filed and those in which there has been a sufficient lapse of time to enable him to file the payers) that he has incurred an expense of $7715.33. He has not had time yet to file all the cases in all the 22 countries, but the expense of doing -- would be approximately $11165.80. The first amount is probably what he has paid, the second is the total he would recall upon to pay. This estimate, if out of the way is all -- probably low, but we should say that it is within 20% of the actual amount.##Hoping that this will be in some degree satisfactory, we remain Yours very truly, (Signed) Dyer & Seely
