Pasadena, California. November 23, 1930. Mr. Douglas Silver, The Independent Syndicate, Inc., Evening Star Building, Washington, D.C. Dear Mr. Silver: Thank you for your statement of November 20th, with a check for $71.71 enclosed. Just now those checks are very convenient and I am glad to know Charlie’s stories are being renewed and brought before the people as you are doing. He would be happy if he could know it. Sincerely, [Transcribed by Lauren B. Gerfen, 2012-11-01]
