If not for my inherent procrastion you might have gotten this
letter a year or two earlier, and if not for.the urgings of many
of my friends you may not have received jt at all. You may not
be the best personjcontact, but I lifted your name from the May
2douh Seattle P I Sunday Northwest magazine section, To shorten
what otherwise could be a long story I will say chat it is
possible I may know the real name of the man called "Cooper."

My friends have urged me to contact the FBI and teil the same story
I have told them. They labor under the delusion Itll get rich

from allttewards But reward or not I will relate to you, or some
other agent, what I know (and do not know) if you can do what your
can to keep my name confidential.

I have no need at all for a homocide bent, revenge crazy crook on
my trail sometime in the future$

I lost track of this man sometime in 1964, but from what little I
know of the hijacking case everything fits. The composite sketch
is not a likeness, but two of the features are certginly hise

I haven't said anything up to now for two reasons.
1. The nagging. fear I could be causing an. innocent person a
Lot of trouble, and
2. should I be right the galty party would not look to
kindly on me.

I gay something now for a number of reasons. Unlike my friends who
are positive I once knew the man who was to become D. B. Cooper,
I am not sure. I guess I'd like to know too.

Please feel free to have an agent or yourself contact me. Maybe
you will agree with my friendso

To whom it may.concern: :
Everytime I read something about DBD. B. Cooper the first Air Plane Hi jacker,
most especially when I see the composite picture of him, a name comes to my

mind that fits that picture. | bé :
b7c
It was in the early nineteen-sixties when T first met this man, [ did not
know him very long. He said He
was supposed to| |} He also

was a pilot. I did not see him do any of these things. He had connections
in Nevada. I do know the name of a bar he and a partner were supposed to

own. J remember the first name of the partner.
I know the town where he said he rented a plane to fly to Nevada.

The reason that I haven't said anything about this before is, IT called the

Bar but no one had heard of him. I made a person to person cali. I have
always felt the name he gave me was not his real one. I also feel kinda

foolish, but, I cannot shake this feeling that I know this man everytime I
see his face,

He seemed to have money. Quite a lot of it.

This was a smart and intelligent man but, I did have the feeling, something
wasn't exactly kosher with him.

If you feel I may be of any help, I will giladiy tell you what [I know.
