Feb. 29, 1892. 
Major S. B. Eaton, 
Edison Building, Broad Street, 
New York City. 
Dear Sir:- 
Referring to your letter of 17th instant, in which you called attention to the condition of the buildings at Menlo Park and to my letter to you of 18th instant in which I informed you of Mr. Edison’s desire that you arrange with Mr. Hughes to have all the material at Menlo collected together and placed in the office building there for safe keeping, I enclose herewith a memorandum from our Mr. Dickson concerning certain apparatus used by the gentlemen who visited Menlo last week and which were left exposed. I send this to you at Mr. Edison’s request, and if the matter of collecting the material at Menlo, is not already under way, he would like you to give it immediate attention. 
Yours truly, 
A. O. Tate 
Private Sec’y.
