May 21, 1895. 
H. B. Auchincloss Esq., 
Box 966, Orange, N.J. 
Dear Sir :- 
In reply to your favor of the 13th inst., I beg to advise you that the Edison Phonograph Works did very well and if on the Receiver’s sale I get hold of the phonograph, I shall be able to rapidly liquidate the Works’ indebtedness. They owe nothing except to me and they made and paid to me last year ending Feb. 1895, $49,000. This was net. 
Yours truly, 
Thos A Edison
