  Messrs. King, Ramsey, Flynn & Pyle, Attorneys at Law, Sandusky, Ohio. Attention Mr. Flynn Dear Sirs:

We have not yet received a remittance for our bill of $3.00 for services in re Franchetti vs. Wagner. In your letter to us of February 3rd, you stated that you had settled the case and expected the money to be paid over to the administrator in a week or ten days, when you would remit to us.1

Kindly give the matter attention and oblige.

Yours very truly, CWC/FL
