Dear Sir:-
I am sending you under separate cover a memoran-
dum book containing data of L. a E. cases which I prepared for
Mr. E. S. Jouett. The leaves containing the data of the Perry 1
County cases were removed by Mr. Jouett, he taking them with him
to Hazard for reference in some trials. We are unable to find
them and think probably you will find them in some of the files
which we sent you some time ago.
I am sending the memorandum book by express per the di—
rections of Mr. quett by letter from Louisville today.
Very truly yours,
