Pardon me? You were contacted by my rival? Although
I have made many enemies in my business, I can only
assume you mean PT Barnum. You are wise not to deal
with him, as he will double-cross you in an instant.

I will send you contact details shortly in regards to
a suitable lawyer. I believe I have one in mind who
is sufficiently liberal in his interpretation of the
law for our needs.

Subject: In regards to a lawyer
Dear Comrade Pedro:
I have made some progress in obtaining a lawyer. I am
waiting for him to get back to me to assure me that he
is available to help us. His name is Mr. Guevara, and
he hails from Bolivia.
Meanwhile, how are you? Still living in Nigeria? I
will be involved in an investigation in West Africa
soon - maybe we can arrange to meet.

Hargrove
