Title
[D8847ADW], Letter from M D Barr to Alfred Ord Tate, December 14th, 1888
Editor's Notes
"The Society of Canadian Engineers are to have a meeting at the McGill College on January 17th, at which the Governor General and most of the principal men of Canada will be present. ### I have been asked to furnish, if possible, a Phonograph to be exhibited and used upon that occasion. Can you assist me in arranging to get one here for that purpose? If so, what will be the charge for sending the Phonograph and a man to exhibit ti? It will not only be a matter of great axxomodation to us, but will be the largest advertisement that you would possible get for the Phonograph in Canada; as the parties who will be here will be all representative men, and you would be enabled to reach these men in a manner which could not be done by months of hard work and personal canvass. Will you please give this your personal attention and assist me all in your power in making the arrangement for the Phonograph. Please answer by return mail and let me know what can be done."
