[LB027843], Letter from Alfred Ord Tate to Robert Ten Eyck Lozier, January 21st, 1889

Editor's Notes

"We are looking about for some one to go to China and Japan with the phonograph. Messrs. Frazar & Co., of New York, are Mr. Edison's agents for the phonograph in these countries, and also represent the Edison electric light there. We want to get for Messrs. Frazar & Co. a young man who understands electric lighting in general, wiring, dynamos &c., whom we can break in as a phonograph expert, who, when he reaches China will be a good all round man to render assistance in connection with the various electrical interests which Messrs. Frazar & Co. represent. Your name was mentioned in this connection, and I have thought it worth while to write you and see if you desire to cease the opportunity of handling some foreign business. The salary would be a thousand to twelve hundred dollars a year and expenses." Yours very truly, AO Tate
