A.O. Tate, Esq.,
Dear Sir:-
Replying to your favors of 3rd ult. And 4th inst., in re taxes paid on foreign patents for Mr. Edison, we beg to state as follows:--
During the year 1890, the following taxes were paid:
[Chart regarding all the taxes paid in Sweden, Norway and Germany]
And during the year 1891, the following:
[Chart regarding taxes paid in Austria, Sweden and France in the second tax year] (A. O. T., 2)
[Chart regarding taxes paid in Belgium, Italy, Germany, Switzerland, Luxemburg, Norway, Spain, England, Sweden, and France] (A. O. T., 3)
During the year 1892, the following annuities have to be paid, if the patents are to be maintained;
[Chart regarding annuities that have to be paid in France, England, Austria, Tasmania, South Australia, and Victoria] (A. O. T., 4)
[Chart regarding 3rd year taxes in France, Belgium, Italy, Switzerland, Luxemburg, Germany, Sweden, Norway, Spain, and Austria] (A. O. T., 5)
[Chart regarding 2nd year taxes in France and Germany] These have just been ordered paid. In addition to the taxes above named, the cost of maintaining the patents will be increased by reason of some of them having to be worked. The expense in connection with the working of patents cannot be definitely stated beforehand, but it would be fair to estimate an average of $65. for each patent. The patents we have checked off are those which will have to be worked during this year.
Yours truly,
Dyer & Seely
