Col. Geo E. Gouraud 
London. England
Dear Sir:- 
I beg to advise you that the Edison and Swan United Electric Light Cy. has just paid dividend, and gave nothing to the Shareholders. The contract gave them no right to create a surplus and it does not look square and the surplus amounts to a large sum.  
Yours truly 
Thos A. Edison
