Dear Rev. "Toots" VIVA! I enclose a letter from the sister of our old fellow-evangelist, Rob't Dowie Burrell. It is clear Rob't is still alive - tho his final divorce between himself and Lady Barleycorn has not been issued. I feel it would be in the interest of our reform movement if you'd drop Rev. B. a few heartening lines - and also enclose an NN tract or two - for I have a terrible fear that in his inhibitions and frustrations Rev. B. might possibly have turned to Luckies, Camels, Chesterfields or even Old Golds. I note another minister is aiding Bob. Send him a tract or 2 also. Let us snatch the old oakenwald brand from further burning! - always hope-ful for the Hop-full - Joe Diggles (AA) (NN) P.S. Rob't Dowie Burrell 513 K. Street Antioch, Calif. Tell him of your great 6012 renovated mansion - JCD
