116 PART YII. Q. When was the Latham patent issued? A. I think in 1902. Q. Do you know Mr. H. N. Marfan ? A. Very well. Q. During this period from 1904 to 1908 he had been one of the principal officers of the Biograph Co.? A. Yes, sir. Q. And isn't it a fact that during that period he had scoffed at your pretensions under the film patent? A. I think so. That was a customary thing in business circles, to depreciate the patents of your competitors and glorify your own patents. Q. The Biograph Co. did not buy the Latham patent until after the formation of the Edison licensees, did it ? A. I don't think they did, but I am not positive. Q. In any event, no suit was brought against the Edison Co. on the Latham patent until after the formation of the Edison licensees ? A. No, sir. Q. And the Edison Co. for many years had used the so-called loop on its projecting machines and cameras, had it ? A. We had been infringing this patent; yes, sir. Q. I say you had been using the loop on your cameras and projecting machines for many years? A. That was the purport of my answer; yes, sir.
