June 9, 1988 

To: Friends/co-counsel 

From: Larry 

I give up. 

I will close my office in Birmingham June 30. Laurie and I will 
be on Dauphin Island July through September. We will have a phone 
and probably a P.O Box there. My mother's address in Mobile is 

(205) 473-1919. She will be able to 
get messages to me. 

We will probably travel in the Fall and begin work in Belize 
January l. We look forward to having visitors. This has been 
great fun, far more than I can describe. I want to thank you for 
allowing me to work on this case. It reminds me of when some 
other good friends allowed me to help them move their furniture. 

I hate to leave this case but Bill has agreed to be the TC and I 
will deliver my files to him by air express or a faster method if 
I can find it. The thought of parting with these files is about 
enough to drive me to tears. I am sure that there is some reward 
in this world for handling this case. We have proven however that 
the reward is not through the judicial system.
