B. Sept. 17th, 1891. Major S. B. Eaton, Edison Building, Broad St., New York City. Dear Sir:- Shortly after Frank McGowan disappeared he made a loan to Mr. W. K. L. Dickson, of the Edison Laboratory, of Five hundred dollars, (500.) receiving as collateral 150 shares of the Capital Stock of the Edison Ore Milling Co. Limited, which were in Mr. Dickson’s name and which were endorse by the latter. These Stock Certifications have disappeared with McGowan. Dickson desires to obtain a reissue. He will, of course, have to file a bond of indemnity. Will you kindly let me know what steps he should take in order to start this matter? Should he address a communication to the Edison Ore Milling Co. Limited, or how should he proceed? Yours very truly, A.O. Tate
