Hello Marcia:

Regarding the red Mercury, I have decided to give it to Ike. You
and Jim can do as you please with it but an educational fund will
have to be started from the proceeds or a reasonable value of the
car.

I have asked Kevin to deliver the car to your house next Friday
at his earliest convenience.

I trust you understand my position in this matter and hope you are
in accord with the educational fund idea. A good dividend paying
common stock offers an ideal inflation hedge plus appreciation and
increased dividends over the years. This can be decided upon when
the ultimate disposition or your plans regarding the car have been
completed.

Mother tells me she mentioned this matter to you but probably did
not go into detail as to my intention.

We enjoyed your visit with us and we trust you found everything
in order when you returned home.

Your loving father,
