August 17th, 1899 letter from Nikola Tesla to George Scherff

Colorado Springs, Aug. 17, 1899

My dear Mr. Scherff, 

Inclosed check for $200 to cover shop expenses and small bills which I inclose. Please also pay the bill for the Hammerschlag Company which I tore up by mistake. The last two clockworks were much better made than the others you sent. Those were the worst I have ever seen.

Sincerely in haste,
N. Tesla
