Then upon success New York station to raise seven hundred thousand dollars more for increasing facctories, of first and second sums our company shall receive fifty one hundredths of fully paid shares of manufacturing company out of which they agree pay Edison and Batchelor for unpatented improvements and cooperation factories here in cheapening manufacturing.
