Dear [REDACTED]:
Reference is made to your letter concerning D. B. Cooper addressed to [REDACTED] Agent, Federal Bureau of Investigation, 915 Second Avenue, Seattle, Washington, and dated January 12, 1979.
Your letter concerning the possible whereabouts of D. B. Cooper is appreciated. In the event you have any specific information concerning the actual whereabouts of Cooper and/or the money, you are requested to contact the Vancouver Resident Agency office of the FBI at telephone number 695-5661. The information you have provided in the above referenced letter, while interesting, does not indicate why you believe Cooper to be in the area you indicate he is in or why you believe the money to be there also. As you are well aware, the FBI cannot deal in supposition, but must have specific facts prior to conducting any investigation. As such, it is necessary that you be specific in your information.
Thank you for your interest in this matter.
Very truly yours,
Paul L. Mack Special Agent in Charge
