(I started this letter to you on nov. 26, 1977 and did
not finish it. I have lost the article I was going to send you.
but inclosing another one.

he answered "hello" [REDACTED] He never looked me in
the eye, but down to the floor as he was walking. He walked
about five feet to my left from where I was [REDACTED]
with his back to me. He stood
there and I saw he was acting very nervous. On his
left, where he was standing, is an open stairway, going
up stairs [REDACTED] (However he wouldn't
know that). He repeated to look up the stairs and the
front door. I was watching him from his back, and
after about five minutes or so, I was wondering
what was on his mind, if he was thinking of going up
stairs to get away from someone, as he kept looking towards
the front & then up the stairs again. About that time
I got nervous my self and was going to find out just
what he had on his mind. I went to his right side &
[REDACTED]
that time he never moved an inch. He looked at me then
and [guess: said] in a very low tone voice, [REDACTED]
then suddenly, again in very low tone voice, he
said [REDACTED] He
thanked me very politely. But he still stood there.
I could see there was some thing very strange, he
looked very, very, scared. His face showed it.
