] received some information the other day regarding
CHARLES 4, LINDJ22GH in which I thought you would be interested,
Aas I understand it, LINDBERGH was give some lessons in
flying by one Jus-LYNcH of Butte, Montana, They went on a barn-
storming tour of the country and were stranced in Billings, kon-
tana. while in Billings, LINWDBitGH lived in the home of a prosti-
tute for a considerable time and associated with the prostitute's
pimp. There is a photograph in existence showing LINDBiAGH with
this womat’ and her pimp,
uring his stay in sillings he triec to marry two dif-
ferent girls who were employed in a laundry. for part of the tiuwe
he lived if a boarding house, ana the rerister containing his name
is still in existence. This boarding house was operated by an old
lady, and LINDBENGH left Billings owing her a little over 938.00 for
room and béard, wnich debt he still owes.
I was reliably informed that LINDS.NGH should have been
prosecuted on two different charges of bootlerging whiskey from
Cansda to Billings, wontaia, by airplane. These charges, of course,
are now outlawed by the Statute of Limitations, but I believe that
it is still pessible to obtain proof of tne fact that he did boot—
ler this wniskey. PECORDED & pees
