Letterhead of Edison United Phonograph Company New York, Nov 25th 1892 My Dear Mr Moriarty London Your two letters are duly to hand. The trunk was received apparently in good order, this morning, [illegible text] as I had previously notified your Brother, he came in a few minutes after its arrival, and will take it away this afternoon. I am glad business is encouraging, shall look forward to the arrival of the cylinder. The key to the [trunk?] is not yet to [have?] but presume it will turn up shortly. I leased a Phonography for Mexico for seven years for one thousand dollars and received all the money the day before yesterday, this has Mr Jesse Seligman's approval and I think under present circumstances it can do no material harm. Carl Stoeckle remitted $100.00 for 10% on his receipts and for some supplies, which I am shipping, Jno S [Conant?] of Princeton, N. J. has had his stock 50 shares which he obtained from Mr [illegible text] transferred one half to Mrs E. M. [Maxwell?] 168 – 5th Ave [the?] balance to his brokers [illegible text] Davis & Caldwell Letterhead of the Edison United Phonograph Company New York, Nov 25th 1892 Mr Moriarty Continued. Do I understand that you want all letters, referring to patent matters and others mailed to yourself individually. Col. Gouraud has been in but two or three times, he has had shipped to this office in couple of clock work machines or apparatus for running the phonograph which are set in motion by winding. Nothing however has been done with them. I have a number of applications for machines for England. I judge some have found their way over there but doubtless you are cognizant of the whole situation there. I notice the letters written from the Senders office to individuals have not the two words “Foreign Committee” prefixed to the signature. It probably is of no importance. A letter I received signed Arthur H Shaw at 36 Summer St Lyons states that a friend of his in England wishes to purchase a machine but that the Company in London can only let him have one on rental which he does not want. Is this according to directions or is it not so. Enclosed please find a letter from Doctor Jensen, Pasteur Institute which I have not answered. With kindest regards Your Sincere Friend G. N. Morison
