Dec. 12, 1892. 
A. O. Tate, Esq., Vice-President, 
North American Phonograph Company, 
New York City. 
Dear Sir:- 
I have received your letter of the 9th instant, containing a proposition that the North American Phonograph Company should account to the Trust for one-third of the total number of machines sold during any one month at ninety dollars each, this price of ninety dollars to be in no way affected by the actual prices which may be obtained for phonographs. I see very clearly the necessity for this agreement, and on behalf of the Edison Phonograph Works I Will assent to it. 
Yours very truly,
