Title

[D8956AAR], Letter from Sherburne Blake Eaton to Alfred Ord Tate, June 21st, 1889

Editor's Notes

It appears that the by-laws provide that the annual meeting shall be held at the office of the company. The certificate of incorporation states that the offices of the company shall be at Harrison. The only stockholders meeting that was ever held was in Harrison. All of the directors meetings have been held there, except those where the Edison agency contract was acted upon. Therefore, the proposed stockholders meeting better be held at Harrison. Mr. Edison need not attend. The stock book of the Co. will show that he holds more than a majority of the stock in his name. He can give a proxy who can vote on his stock. That would be all right, notwithstanding the fact that in a certain sense title to the stock is in Mr. Lippincott or in the N.A.P. Co.
