Re Seattle letter to Richmond dated 5/2/80, and Richmond airtel to Seattle dated 9/3/80.

Enclosed for Seattle are two color candid photographs depicting [REDACTED]. One photograph is of [REDACTED] alone, and the other photograph is a group photograph depicting [REDACTED] in viewer's extreme right.

On 5/16/80, [REDACTED] Sutherlin, Virginia, who is [REDACTED] Sambo's Restaurant, Riverside Drive, Danville, Virginia, advised that she had recently seen a TV program depicting D. B. Cooper, and after giving it considerable thought, it came to her mind that a person she knows as [REDACTED] closely resembles D. B. Cooper. She said she first met [REDACTED] about 9/79, when he visited her restaurant as a customer. [REDACTED] continued to frequent Sambo's Restaurant, and during this time she had many conversations with him, and in some of these conversations he said that he was a U.S. Forest Service employee employed at White Oak Mountain, near Danville, Virginia. She said he has since left the Danville area and is believed to have gone to Charlotte, North Carolina, and then to Columbia, South Carolina. She said she also heard recently that he might be in Atlanta, Georgia, with a [REDACTED] first name only known to her as [REDACTED]
