Dear Colonel:-

Yours of the 21st enclosing letter from the Department of State at Washington, and copy of letter from the Russian Embassy duly received. I beg to report that I am taking this matter up with the prosecuting officer of the Dare County District, and you may assure the Department at Washington that it will be thoroughly investigated and all proper steps taken to bring the offending parties before the courts.

Very truly yours,
