Letterhead of the Edison United Telegraph Company 
1st December 1892. 
S. F. Moriarty Esq: London. 
Dear Sir, 
GRAPHOPHONE AGREEMENTS. 
I have now looked through all the documents in the safe of this house, and the only original documents that are in my custody are Phonograph Patents, and official certificates relating to the “working” of same, which at the end of the year I will transfer in bulk to the safe keeping of Messrs Seligman Bros:. 
I had nothing at all to do directly with any of the Graphophone patents, or the assignment of same, Mr Theodore Seligman having attended to these matters personally himself. Beyond the mere data of the No: dates and titles of all Graphophone patents I had nothing to do with original documents.  
I have however a great many documents (copies) relating to the amalgamation agreements between all parties, with the schedules and exhibits annexed. I will have these all ready for you to-morrow morning and if you wish to see any particular one of them you can do so at once whenever you call. Where the originals of these documents are I have not the slightest notion, never having seen them or been notified in whose custody they were.  
Yours faithfully,  
Geo Munro
