HOW— <br />EVER, I AM GREATLY CONCERNED ABOUT THE CONSEQUENCES OF THE <br />SITUATION AS IT APPEARS. IT WOULD SEEM THAT THER9 4S SOME <br />• WAY THAT'THIS COULD BE HANDLED WITipIOUT RESORTING'TO PHYSICAL <br />DAMAGE TO ANYONE OR ANYTHING, EVEN THOUGH MR. POOLE DOES <br />HAVE SOME DOG BITES ON HIS ARM AT THE PRESENT TIME• <br />I AM FORWARDING A COPY OF THIS LETTER TO THE SHERIFF'S DE- <br />PARTMENT IN THE HOPE THAT THERE MIGHT BE SOME WAY THAT THIS <br />COULD BE HANDLED WITHOUT MR. POOLE'S HAVING TO RESORT TO <br />DRASTIC MEASURES. <br />THAI MAY <br />UBEEOF ANYHFOR SERVICE,,RDOTNOTTION TO HESITATEHIS SITUATION AND <br />TO -CONTACT ME. <br />IF I , <br />SINCERELY!, <br />CHARLES F.
