In the first place, the property meaning |
the real estate did not belong to the writer, sane
being owned by the Fidelity Building @ Loan Aes'n.,
of thie city. However, I did own the'|furniture an!
the house which was ocoupied by the cutlawe at the
time of the raid, Federal officer's of Oklahoma
City have absolved me from any connection wth then,
ae I rented thea house to them upon recommendation
of one of our Representatives from thie County.
For-- your information, I am attaching:
hereto the list of the|damage resulting therefrom,
in accordance with the request ofthe Oklahoma Oity . -
Office, It is my understanding that the owners of Magoo
the property have submitted an estimate of ‘sometping . -
over $200.00 for repaire to the house. Certainly 1f
they are entittled to recovery, I too, should beaP}aces
in the eame position, ;
~ My furniture was all purchased after I was Te
married which was on the 19th day of February 1932, ee
consequently, you will observe that it was practically ae
new, I bare been out of employment since November 1932, _
atrwhich time the Sbamee National Bank failed, for
whom I worked, Coming as it did,this incident has deen
an extremely hard blow under such circumstances,
