Dear Sir:
In receiving your notice to the sale of my property at Two Thousand Two Hundred Dollars ($2200.00). I am greatly surprised to hear of the sale. At the same time I am greatly dissatisfied at the selling price that you have notified me with. In the first place I did not want to sell my property. In the second place I am not satisfied with the selling price, if it had to be sold.
House (or dwelling) alone cost me over $2000.00. Besides there are garages and barn and several buildings.
Improvement of the land is very vital. I had twenty-five (25) acres under cultivation.
Taking these things into consideration I should think that my property should be sold for better price than which you have sold for.
As I have stated I did not want to sell my property but, however, if it is the policy of the Government it could not be helped. But, however, your notification to the selling price of my property is highly dissatisfactory to me.
Yours truly,
"Saijiro Miyasaki"
