E. H. Lewis, Esq.,
Care of Messrs. Eaton & Lewis,
Edison Building,
Broad St.,
New York City.
Dear Sir:-
I handed you this morning, a copy of the London Financial News, which contains the Yeomans Prospectus, and which I should be glad to receive back as soon as you have finished with it, as it is the property of Mr. J. W. Mackintosk of Boston who will probably use it in connection with the suit which Mr. Yeomans has brought against him in conjunction with the other gentlemen, who at the time this prospectus was issued were [Directors?] of the Toy Phonograph Company. I also handed you the following papers:
(1) Copy of License, T. A. Edison to the London [Stereoscopic?] & Photographic Company to work part of patent dated 30 July, 1887, #2909
(2) 3/1 of that part of the license of the 22nd of March, relating to royalties payable thereunder.
(3) Agreement between T. A. Edison and the London [Stereoscopic?] and Photographic Company as to payment in advance of [illegible text] under License, dated 22nd day of March, 1878.
Will you please acknowledge receipt of the above? stated to you orally, I do not think the documents relating to the London Stereoscopic & Photographic Company are complete. We have yet to hear from Co. Gourard in regard to the suit brought by himself and the London Stereoscopic & Photographic Company against Mr. Yeomans' Company. I presume we will have some word from Co. Gourard within ten days time.
Yours truly,
AO Tate
Private Secretary.
