Title: [D8955ABQ], Letter from Sherburne Blake Eaton to Thomas Alva Edison, May 9th, 1889
Editor's Notes: T.A. Edison Esq., Dear Sir: Re Gilliland and Tomlinson. Mr. Lewis and I have had several interviews with Mr. Ingersoll. He thinks you have a good case, and warms up to it. We paid Mr. Ingersoll $500. Last autumn we paid Mr. Hornblower $250. We have made and will be making other cash disbursements. I suggest that if agreeable, you send us a check for $1,000. on account of the cash disbursements in this case. Very truly yours, S.B. Eaton
