Gentlemen:
I heard a story last November, while playing cards with a group of friends in South Jersey which I have never been able to get out of my mind because it made me think of the skyjacker you have never caught, Mr. Cooper. (fresh) It was about a man named [REDACTED] who was once under suspicion as a skyjacker. He, apparently, is now living on the West Coast.
[REDACTED] was then moving to the [REDACTED] because [REDACTED] She had said that [REDACTED] When she was told
[REDACTED]
caused so much trouble that she had to [REDACTED] and according to my friends had lived in about [REDACTED] New Jersey - [REDACTED] The trouble that interested me, however, was the story [REDACTED] and the skyjacking matter. The way they talked about him, it seemed to me that he fitted the description of the Cooper skyjacker.
Did you think to check out [REDACTED] Are you still investigating the Cooper matter? If my hunch is correct, I will present a copy of this letter to you and collect any reward.
Good Lunk!
P. S. I have just talked to one of the ladies at the card party and she says that you might be able to find out some information from [REDACTED]
