August 8th. John F. Randolph, Esq. Edison Laboratory, Orange, N. J. Dear Sir:-- I return herewith bill of the Automaton Company; I have written to these people in accordance with Mr. Edison's notes. Yours very truly, Thomas Maguire (1 Enc.) <T> August 8th. Automaton Piano Co., 31 & 33 10th Ave., New York. Dear Sirs:-- Will you kindly send one of your men to Mr. Edison's house in Llewellyn Park, to look at his piano with the Automaton attachment. Mr. Edison says that the instrument has never worked properly; that even the crank does not work. Your prompt attention to this matter will be appreciated. Yours very truly, AO. Tate Private Secretary. M
