Richard Dyer, Esq., New York My dear Mr. Dyer, Not being in possession of your address, I send this through Mr. P.H. Klein of the General Incandescent Arc Light Co. New York. I have sent Mr. Edison about four weeks ago an expose of Professor Wohl, an eminent electro-chemist at the Berlin University who has gone into the Edison applications. I have secured his counsel and it seems I send you enclosed a translation as well as a copy of the original text, so as to enable you to check any point in my translation that may be doubtful, as my chemical knowledge has become somewhat rusty. I am today in receipt of a letter from Dr. Tell, who handles the Edison cases here, who tells me that he is urged by the patent Office to make his decision about the separate applications requested by the Patent Office. In the opinion of Professor Wohl, you will find precise propositions as to the separation necessary according to German Patent practice. I have today cabled to Mr. Edison urging him to confer with you without further delay. The patent office has yet granted us four weeks time for entering our reply and will give no more. Please give this your immediate attention and if necessary addressing “Fulgura Berlin.” Yours very truly, P. Seubell
