CFW August 18th, 1891 Colonel C.H. Barney Windsor Hotel, Montreal, Can. Dear Sir:- Mr. Steringer has handed me your letter to him under date 16th instant, in regard to the Phonograph Exhibit. I have made a list of everything that will be required, and have submitted it this morning to Mr. Lombard, the Vice President of The North American Phonograph Company, who will indicate what portion of the list can be furnished by his Company, and the balance we will have made up in the Laboratory. I will send you either tonight or tomorrow, a copy of this list, and will at the same time advise you of exactly what arrangements I have made with Mr. Lombard. I am going to place Mr. Walter Miller in charge of the Exhibit on behalf of the North American Phonograph Company, or its representatives in Canada. This young man has had charge of a large number of like exhibitions, and understands thoroughly how they should be handled. He will be in Montreal with an assistant not later than the 2nd of September. This will give five days to prepare for the exhibit which I think will be ample tome. Yours very truly. A.O. Tate Private Secretary
