May 22nd 94 J H. Herrick Esq- 44 Broad Street New York. Dear Sir:- In reply to your favor of the 19th inst I beg to state that the Brake now in the hands of Mr Brown is my invention. On account of lack of time I have placed it in the hands of Mr Brown to improve the details so as to permit of an actual trial. He has made several improvements and I think that it is now about completed. I have told Mr Brown that I was willing to License on a royalty basis. Yours truly Thos A. Edison R[andolph]
