Transcription

Sept. 10, 1891. 
Alex. Elliott, Jr., Esq., 
Paterson, N. J. 
Dear Sir:- 
Mr. Edison has read your letter of 5th instant. 
With reference to the man with whom Moller says he is in communication regarding his property, this man is not acting in Mr. Edison’s interest, and he knows nothing of him. Mr. Edison says that the figure which Moller asks for his property - $10,000 – is O. K., providing the ore is there. A six months option on this property will do. 
Mr. Edison notes what you say with relation to the Bryant mine, and he says that the Bryant mine, and he says that the time is too short. 
In regard to the Dickerson mine, Mr. Edison does not think that we could do anything with this property. 
Mr. Edison is not interested in this “to and fro winder” referred to in your letter of 1st instant. 
Yours truly, 
AO Tate 
Private Secretary.
