Sept. 8, 1891. W. H. Miller, Esq., Windsor Hotel, Montreal, CANADA. Dear Sir:- In reply to your letter 3rd instant, I instructed the Laboratory to [illegible text] you a check for ($100.) one hundred dollars. In regard to hotel accommodation, the rate of $3.50 per days is as low as can be had in Montreal. Please keep me advised as to the receipts of the Nickel Slot machines. You understand that you are in charge of this exhibition and you should check the amounts collected by three machines whenever the cash boxes are opened. You understand what my arrangement is in regard to this revenue and therefore you will appreciate the importance of keeping your eye on it and of knowing exactly what amounts are collected. Please let me know how everything progresses. Yours truly, A.O. Tate Private Secretary.
