Bepartment of Justice Rurran of Fuvestigation 2 Box 32 Jacksonville, Fla., March 23, 1929, WRITTEN AT MIAMI , FLORIDA. Director, Bureau of Investigation, g° Department of Justice, \ Washington, D. C. aa . io) Dear Sir: Subject: AL CAPONE ~ (Classification given this case in Jacksonville headquarters office unknown). This afternoon, while in Miami, Agent Burdge called me on $he telephone from Jacksonville and informed me that you desired Agent Perkins to secure certain affidavits concerning the physical activities and whereabouts of Al Capone between the dates of January 13 and February 25, 1929, or there- abouts. Agent Burdge further informed me that it was your desire to have these affidavits in the mail, direct to Washington from Miami, tonight or by noon tomorrow. I immediately hired an automobile and drove Perkins to Hialeah and secured four affidavits which are enclosed herewith. I understand from him that there “are three others, and while we have expended our best efforts to get them this evening, it will be physically impessible to get them tonight. Moreover, we cannot get them before one or two o'clock tomorrow - the only reason being that the affiants' engagements will not or do not conform with our desires. On tomorrow (Sunday) afternoon's mail, Mr. Perkins will forward the remain- ing affidavits to you. I do not pretend to know much about this matter - I am merely writing this letter as a transmitting agent. Tne file is in Jax and I never heard of this matter until this afternoon. I hope the enclosed papers #11 be of value for the purpose they may be designed to serve. oP *~_A0 Very truly y, .
