What does the scan show?
A person reads every report. Corrections are made by hand, to the data — titles, dates, names, which pages belong together — never to the scans, and they can take a while to appear.

[REDACTED] Agent Federal Bureau of Investigation 915 Second Avenue Seattle, Washington, 98104
Please open the enclosed map of the state of Washington and start at The Seal of the State of Washington.
Follow this pencil line to the place where it crosses another pencil line (in the lower part of the circle I have drawn).
I believe this to be the approximate location of the remains of Cooper, the man who jumped from the plane with $200,000.00 in his possession.
The money is also in this area.
I also beleive I can be of help in actually finding both the remains of Cooper, and the money, if I am on the site with you.
Please beleive I am not looking for personal glory for myself. What I am interested in is being of help, and the satisfaction of [REDACTED] of knowing I helped in a good cause.
Should you decide my help would be worthwhile, as far as I am concerned, no one else beside you and I need know about the matter. You can be the judge of the matter.
I am [REDACTED], and I will say that if some one, [REDACTED], had offered to help me in a matter such as this, I would probably have laughed in his face. (Before I knew of [REDACTED], that is.)
However, I have learned that [REDACTED] have been successfully finding all sorts of things for the last five hundred years, including people.
