Dear Sir:-
I beg to confirm the following telegram sent you last night:-
"Edison and Lippincott have agreed with Cheever Gilliland on division of Capital Stock of Slot Company subject to your approval; only obstacle in way of combination being actually effected for what Gilliland insists on furnishing cabinet work, which Edison will not consent to. We want you to use your influence toward getting Gilliland to withdraw this demand' otherwise Edison Lippincott will start manufacture of nickel-slot machine patented by Lombard, which they control. I anticipate your unqualified support. Advise me immediately of your action in this connection."
Yours truly,
A.O. Tate
