Dear Dr. Allen:

I have had a little difficulty in finding someone I
could depend upon to give me confidential information
regarding the individual you had in mind as a prospect.
for your department.

Finally, I was able to obtain information through a
source that I consider reliable and I approached several
individuals who were so situated as to know quite a bit
about this man.

Ps:

a I am advised that they all were of the firm opinion that
he is not at all desirable for this type of work. He

is described as being very much of a "heel" and arrogant
to the point of being obnoxious.

I give you this information not as my own idea since I

do not know this individual at all but as relayed to me
through another man from three parties who know the

person in:question quite well. I trust that this will

be of some assistance to you.

I am

Yours very truly,
