[D8954ACE], Letter from Postal Telegraph Cable Co, Albert B Chandler to Thomas Alva Edison, May 29th, 1889

Editor's Notes

New York May 29th 1889####Friend Edison:--####I have the full record of the Patent Office in connection with the interference between yourself and Nicholson in the matter of the Quadruplex. I think it will clearly show to an Arbitration Committee, that you, and not Nicholson, are the inventor of the system of transmission, and I have arranged to settle the question, as between the Western Union Company and the Postal, by arbitration, instead of in the Courts.####Notwithstanding the record appears to me clearly in your favor, I would like to have a few minutes talk with you on the subject. I would also like very much to see your laboratory. I therefore propose to go to Llewellyn Park to call on you about the middle of the afternoon next Saturday, June first. Will you please say by return mail whether or not this will be agreeable to you, and oblige,####Yours very truly,####A.B. Chandler####[At bottom two lines of code]####[name mentions: Thos Edison, Western Union, Henry Nicholson, A.B. Chandler, Postal Telegraph Cable Co, Patent Office]
