- Editor's Notes
- "I read the catalogues you kindly gave me concerning the Pohonoplex and found it easily digestible. After meeting you yesterday I had the pleasure of seeing Mr Edison to whom I mentioned the fact that every message in Europe is recorded. Mr Edison thought that he could construct the Phonoplex so as to meet [unclear] requirement. Now if Mr. Edison succeeds in maiking the instrument adaptable for European Telegraphy I think that the invention can be well introduced over there and I would like to handle it on the Continent. ### Mr Hamilton ought to take out with him two sets of instruments modified as indicate--one for Mr. Gouraud and for me on. I also suggest that you send for me a set of Electrotypes as used in your Catalogue as I want to use them in a German Catalogue I propose to have printed. I shall be thankful to you if you assure me before sailing that I can rely on being made your Continental Agent for the Phonoplex. I will accept your terms trusting that they will be reasonable. You can direct your answer care this office. I sail Saturday next." Very respectfully yours, Armin Tenner [Marginalia: "Mr E, This is good man for agent. A.O.T." TAE marg: "Yes-I will experiment on it."
