Dear Sir;
In regard to the highjacking of your aircraft some years when the person jumped from the plane with the $200,000.
I have plotted upon the map of Washington State the location of the currency cache, it is contained in a wooden box holding aluminum container and sealed with paraffin.
The location of the cache is within the bounds of the TOUTLE 15 minute series quadrangle.
