176 Broadway, New York,
December 26th, 1901
Thos. Edison, Esq.,
Orange, N.J.
Dear Sir:-
My acquaintance with you in years past and my friendship with your Brother in Michigan prompts me to write you in regard to a check cashed for Thos A. Edison Jr., for $40. A friend of the young man had it cashed by a client of mine who is a poor man and cannot afford the loss. I know there is some mistake and have prevented an application to Police Court for a warrant. Please call the attention of your son to the matter and let him communicate with me at once, if you know his whereabouts. Check returned No. account, dated May 23, 1901. Amount $40 signed J.R. Nugent, endorsed and cashed for Thos A. Edison Jr.,
Most respectfully so.,
R.J. Hain 
P.S. I do not do a collection business and this is not in my line and only withhold the matter until I hear from you.
R.J.H.
