Edison Phonograph Works,
Orange, N.J.
Dear Sirs:-
I had a conversation with Mr. Edison yesterday in regard to the 12 Phonographs (new model), and the six Nickel-in-the-Slot machines which your building, six of the former [for?] the E.U.P. Co. and six for the N.A.P. Co., and the latter for the Edison United Phonograph Co. Mr. Edison says that if these are billed direct against the Companies named it may cause complication with respect to our manufacturing agreements, and he therefore prefers to have them billed against himself. You can retain the original orders which I sent you and make your bills out against Mr. Edison.
Yours very truly,
A. O. Tate
