Title
[SB019011a], Clipping, Cincinnati Enquirer, January 19th, 1889
Bibliographic Citation
"Serious Charge Against Inventor Edison's Agents", Cincinnati Enquirer, January 19th, 1889
Editor's Notes
"The alleged double dealing which TAE received ath the hands of his trusted agents" Gilliland and Tomlinson, is ov special interest because Gilliland is well known in Cincinnatti. His friends here can hardly believe the accusations leveled at him. The article talks about Gilliland's career and how Edison found Tomlinson. The article then details the facts of the falling out between TAE and Tomlinson and Gilliland.
Thomas Edison accuses late legal adviser John C. Tomlinson and electrician/inventor Ezra T. Gilliland of cheating him out of $250,000 in the sale of the phonograph
