67/126 September 10th, 1891. S.B. Eaton, Esq., Edison Building, Broad St., New York. Dear Sir:-- I beg to acknowledge with thanks receipt of your letter of the 9th instant, calling to our attention Article #44 of the statutes of the Cie Continental of Paris, which provides that the founder’s shares issued by that Company are valid for five years. What is the effect of this provision upon the founder’s shares owned by us? Does it mean we must exchange them for new shares, and are we required to ca;; the attention fo the French Company to this matter? Kindly advise us and oblige. Yours truly, Edison Electric light Company of Europe. By Alfred Ord Tate Treasurer.
