LETTERS      FROM

Dear Sir,

   Perhaps you have heard of me and my nationwide 
   campaign in the cause of temperance. Each year
   for the past fourteen, I have made a tour of Florida 
   and Southern Alabama including Indiana, Iowa and 
   Illinois and have delivered a series of lectures on the 
   evils of drinking. On this tour I have been accompanied 
  by my young friend and assistant, Clyde Lindstrom. 
  Clyde, a young man of good family and excellent back-
   ground, is a pathetic example of life ruined by excessive 
   indulgence in beer and women.

   Clyde would appear with me at lectures and sit on the
   platform wheezing and staring at the audience through 
   blurry, bloodshot eyes, sweating profusely, and picking 
   his nose, passing gas and making obscene gestures 
   while I would point out as an example of what over-
   indulgence can do to a person.

   This fall, unfortunately, Clyde died. A mutual friend has 
   given me your name, and I wonder if you would be 
   available to take Clyde's place on my 2000 tour?

Yours sincerely and in faith,

		Brother Al
