<br />Dear Sirs:
<br />
<br /> On the 31st ~f December, 1930, we were asked by Mr.-C~thrietl if we could board
<br />and look afterthree children for a while u~til they could be placed elsewhere~ These
<br />~ild~r~n b~I0nged to a Mr. & Mr~. ~oseph Kiser who were separated, We agreed to. this with
<br /> ne unaers~anding that the b~ar~ bzlt'should be paid when~ they left~ We understood also
<br />that the.c~ty would be~espo~sible for thei~ bOa~d,~ ~
<br />
<br />brought tO Since the. three Sm~ller children were ~h~mEht to us we have~ had an older boy
<br /> us, ~He came o~ March ,.1~31. ~e ~ave b~en expecting to_have_them moved for
<br />~ome time, but it seem~ hard for them~ Now it is.necessary that a new'board-
<br />·ng ~lace be found for them as we need 'i~e~oom. Now comes the question of board.
<br /> It seems that the city manage= did not realize that the children were-still here
<br />and no appropriation h~s been made for their boardA,
<br /> ~e would appreciate your looking into s~ud attending to this.affair at your ear-
<br />liest oppor$unity. We have enclosed a bill fo~ the board of these children at 50 $ per
<br />day eaeh~
