March 16,1891.
Major S.B. Eaton,
#120 Broadway, New York City.
Dear Sir:-
Mr. Edison has read your letter of 14th instant, in which you report a long talk between yourself and Mr. [Bush?] re E.P Works Claim v. N.A.P.Co., and he has made the following note upon the same:
“MAJOR: I simply wrote the memo to see how it would strike Lippincott: I did not sign it. Suppose I had written six different propositions to see which he would have accepted, according to this I would be bound by all. It’s a nice state of affairs if a [illegible text] is hound on an unsigned memorandum.
Yours very truly,
(Signed A.O. Tate)
Private Secretary.
