Aug, 18th, 1891.
Thomas A. Edison, Esq.,
Ogdensburgh, N.J.
Dear Mr. Edison:-
I enclose herewith Financial Report of the Silver Lake Factory for Week-ending August 18th. Please note how the pay roll in the Chemical Room has gone down. In addition to our saving on labor, through the shutting down of this building, we will also save about $50 a week in coal. We have sufficient was on hand last us between six and nine months, unless the musical record business develops enormously.
Yours very truly,
