COLLINS & CORBIN COUNSELLORS AT LAW CLEMENT K. CORBIN ROBERT J. BAIN EDWARD A. MARKLEY CHARLES w. BROADHURST 1 EXCHANGE PLACE, HOWARD F. MC INTYRE JERSEY CITY, N. J. FRANK A. BOEHLER JAMES B. EMORY PATRICK F. MC DEVITT FRANK P. CLANCY JOHN F. LEONARD May 23, 1930. Hoare and Henry V.o U. S. Radium. Dr. James H. Brothers, 128 Broad Street, Newark, N. J. Dear Dr. Brothers: Herewith copy of letter from Mr. Barker, Vice President of the United States Radium Corporation, in regard to physical examination of Mrs. Hoare and Mrs. Henry on June 16th or 17th. I em requesting Mr. Barker to get in touch with you direct whenever the final date is fixed. You will note that these examinations are to take place at the offices of Dr. F. B. Flinn, College of Physicians & Surgeons, 632 W. 168th Street, New York City. Dr. Flinn is not representing us in this, but is acting on behalf of the girls. Therefore we are compelled to go to New York, as heretofore stated verbally to you. I am anxious for you to get as much history of these two women as possible. I suggest you take an expert stenographer with you who can write down a detailed history as you get it on examination. You should ascertain how long they have been suffering. This is important from the standpoint of the statute of limitations. You should also ascertain what their various sufferings consisted of and the nature and extent of the injuries complained of in the beginning. You should also ascertain the names and addresses of all the doctors and dentists who have treated them after they left our employ. We can then check up on their histories and ascertain whether they are accurate. You should also ascertain the dates of marriages and number of children each has had, whether they worked after they left our place and how long they worked for us; whether their work was continuous or periodic. or course, you need not be limited to these suggestions. Anything you think would be helpful in the way of history should be obtained. Yours very truly, EAM: AG E. A. MARKLEY
