ERWIN AND ERWIN, Counsellors at Law 99 Lembeck Ave., Jersey City, N. J. October 24th, 1924. Radium Luminous Corporation, Alden Street, Orange, N. J. Gentlemen:- We have been retained by Mr. Theodore Kuser, with regard to certain injuries which his wife, Mrs. Hazel Kuser, sus- tained while in your employ, as a result of the handling of radium in her performance of the duties required of her. We understand from Mr. Kuser that his wife has been in a critical condition for some time and has had to undergo inmumerable operations and has suffered to a great extent, and that in all probability she will not recover from the effects of the disease which she contracted while in your employ. We have advised our clients that they have a just claim against your company for loss of service, injuries, expenses incurred, etc., and although we are not at the present time pre- pared to make an estimate of the damages sustained, this is simply to notify you that we have been retained in this connection and ask that you notify us of what your intentions may be in the matter. We would also appreciate your advising us as to the name of your attorneys, in order that we may explain the situation to them. Very truly yours, ERWIN & ERWIN, Per. (Signed) Thomas B. Davidson.
