372 Louis Rosenbluh, Direct Examination.
Mr. Caldwell: The witness' conversation with Mr. Fox last testified to is objected to.
Q. Did your company receive a notice from the Patents Company that its notice of cancellation had been revoked? A. Yes, sir. The following morning, it was on a Saturday morning — Mr. Fox's conversation was on a Friday, and on Saturday morning, we received a letter from the Motion Picture Patents Company, which I opened, and the letter read that the cancellation was withdrawn.
Q. Was the sale of your company to the General Film Company successfully consummated? A. No, sir.
Q. Will you state whether or not you received any subsequent or later notice of the cancellation of the license, from the Patents Company? A. Yes, sir. We again received a similar letter like the first, cancelling the license, only changing the date, instead of December 4th, to December 25th.
Q. Before December 25th arrived you consulted counsel, and obtained an injunction from the Court, a temporary injunction, stopping the cancellation of the license? A. Yes, sir. Messrs. Rogers & Rogers were —
Mr. Caldwell (Interrupting) : That question is objected to.
The Witness (Continuing) : Were successful in getting an injunction, under which injunction the manufacturers continued to supply the Greater New York Film Rental Company.
Q. Did you subsequently institute a suit in the United States Court, in order to protect what you deemed your rights in the matter, and to insure the delivery of the films to your company? A. Yes, sir.
Q. Did you obtain an injunction in that suit? A. Yes, sir.
Q. Mr. Rosenbluh, has the service you have received from the manufacturers since this notice of cancellation been as satisfactory as the service that your company received prior to September, 1911 — how about the "special features?" A. We did not receive any special features from the manufacturers, although we applied for them.
