July 26th,1927. Mr. Edward A. Markley, c/e Messrs. Collins & Corbin, 1 Exchange Place, Jersey City, N.J. Dear Mr. Markley: In accordance with your suzgestion we have sent to the Aetna Life Insurance and the New Amsterdam Casual ty Companies, copies of the notice of the Bill in Chancery served on us by Potter & Berry, regard- ing the Grace Fryer case against this corporation. We are, however, enclosing herewith copy of this notice to you. We are also writing Mr. Smith of Edwards & Smith, sending to him a copy of this notice. Since we have 20 days from the 29th of this month in which to answer, we suggest that it might be advisable to withhold answer until we have had an opportunity to check up with Doctor Frederick B. Flinn on the question as to whether Doctor MeCaffery who treated Miss Bryer, pronounced this a radium poisoning case in the early part of 1924. It is our impression that this is true. Dr. Flinn is now on a vacation, but we are writing him today on this point, and we shall communicate with you just as soon as we have had any word from him. We mailed you today a copy of the Interpretation of Radiun by Soddy. This is one of the most authentic publications on the subject of radium, and we trust you will find it interesting. Just as soon as we can have the copies typed we will send you the reports of the interviews had by our Irr. Dey with Miss Rooney of the Luminite Corporation. These you will recall we gave to Hr. Smith yesterday. Very truly yours, President. CBLee:RH enc
