Dec. 13th, 1893.
A. B. de Freece, Esq., Temporary Receiver, 
Automaton Piano Co., 31 10th Ave., City.
Dear Sir:--
Your letter of 8th inst. was received by Mr. Edison, who directs me to say in reply that your man called at his residence in Llewellyn Park and fixed the piano. After rendering three selections the piano again got out of order. Mr. Edison says the whole trouble is due to a miserable little gear which gets out of mesh. With the mechanics employed by your Company, Mr. Edison is not astonished that it went into the hands of a receiver.
Yours very truly,
AO Tate
Private Secretary.
