New York City.
Dear Sir:-
With reference to your letter of 23rd March, with which was enclose an extract from a letter received by you from Mr. Philip S. Dyer, in regard to a Children’s Exhibition to be held in Milan next month, and at which it is desired some of Mr. Edison’s talking dolls should be exhibited, Mr. Edison has instructed me to say to you that he has been trying to obtain some Dolls for this purpose, but has not succeeded in doing so. The toy phonograph business, as you are aware, is tied up in litigation, and for that reason Mr. Edison finds it impossible to obtain any dolls. He has already written Mr. Lieb on this subject in reply to a letter which he received from that gentleman.
Yours very truly,
(A.O. Tate)
Private Secretary.
