On 3/24/76 [REDACTED] Piggly Wiggly advised EDWARD E. LAME was employed as a meat cutter for six months in 1975. He said LAME was a quiet individual about 50 years old, wore glasses and was a heavy drinker.

[REDACTED] Piggly Wiggly, advised he knew LAME while he was at the store and described him as a person who was fine until he was drinking, then he would make any kind of wild statement you could imagine. [REDACTED] said LAME was a good butcher and steady employee, but the drinking ruined him.

On 4/29/76 the composite photographs of the unknown subject, aka DAN COOPER without shades was shown to [REDACTED] and they advised this did not resemble EDWARD A. LAME in any way.
