Title

[D8049ZDM], Letter from Edison Telephone Co of London Ltd, April 16th, 1880

Editor's Notes

Docketed as draft circular to shareholders. Entered into negotiations with Bell because of 1) gov't proceedings against Co; 2) competition; 3) "expense and friction" of having 2 exchanges close to each other. Both sides have agreed on terms, excepting minor details. 115,000 stock to Edison co., 200,000 to Bell co.; these terms favorable. Will also modify arrangement with TAE. Other terms.
