November 10th, 1899 letter from George Scherff to Nikola Tesla

New York, Nov. 10th,
1899 46 & 48 E. Houston Street

Nikola Tesla, Esq.,
Colorado Springs, Colo.

Dear Mr. Tesla:

I beg to acknowledge the receipt of your favor of Nov. 7th, together with checks for Munsell & Co., The Players, Am. Museum of Natural History and $225 for shop account, of which $50 has been paid to Mrs. Czito, as directed.

The fourth break is now practically finished, only a little work remaining to be done on the pump, which will be completed by to-morrow evening. Mr. Uhlman says the machine runs very smoothly and quietly.

Mr. Uhlman has put the men to work on such parts of the break which are the same as those required for the oscillator, so that the shop is kept busy until other orders are received. 

The book on energy transmission has had to be ordered from Europe. Mr. Spiers told me to-day that he expects the same to arrive in a few days; I will forward it as soon as it is received.

Respectfully,
Geo. Scherff
