October 18th, 1899 letter from George Scherff to Nikola Tesla

New York, Oct. 18th, 1899
46 & 48 E. Houston Street

Nikola Tesla, Esq.,
Colorado Springs, Colo.

Dear Mr. Tesla:

Your letter of Oct. 14th, in regard to the clockwork, tubes with two compartments and point receiver was received this morning.

Mr. Uhlman says he will try hard to carry out your suggestions and get out a clockwork as soon as possible. Mr. Wagner is now here working on the small lamps. The work on the Porter motor break is progressing as quickly as possible.

The photographs have also arrived, and I am going to deliver them this evening on my way up-town. Mr. Uhlman and I have marvelled at them and think that the magnitude of the work being achieved, and we have regretted that we cannot be actual witnesses to these wonders.

The card for a registered letter, inclosed in your note received yesterday was presented at the Post Office, and I was told that this is only a second notice for the letter of Dr. Cruzan and that the same had been forwarded to you on Oct. 11th.

Respectfully,
Geo. Scherff
