Dear Franklin:
 
             In compliance with your request of March l0th, 
I called on Major Hooker at his office in New York City on 
March 20th to ascertain what he wanted to see me about. He 
told me that you wanted me to submit a proposed deed of
trust of John Boettiger and proposed Wills of John
Boettiger and Anna Roosevelt Boettiger to the Pougkkeepsie
Trust Company to find out if it would act as successor
trustee and what compensation it would expect to receive.
 
             I have submitted the deed and Wills to the 
Poughkeepsie Trust Company and it has consented to act as 
successor trustee and will accept whatever compensation 
therefor is allowed by law.
 
             Last night I returned the deed and Wills to
Major Hooker with a letter from the Poughkeepsie Trust 
Company.
 
                         With kindest regards, I am
                         Sincerely yours,
                         Henry Hackett
