Mr. George Peters,
Office of the Custodian,

Vancouver, B. C.

Dear Sir:

This is in reply to your letter of May 29th.

I agree with the price of $1,250.00 based on valuation issued from Ottawa on my property at 314 Mercer Street, New Westminster. But before I forward this Title to you I would like to know whether the payment will be made in full at the time of the sale. And secondly whether I could have the net proceeds forwarded to me directly and immediately after the necessary transactions are completed. Please give me a reply at your convenience.

Another thing I would like to make clear, at the same time, is about my other property at 1031 Royal Avenue, New Westminster. On this property I would like to get a net proceeds of $5,000.00 and not a cent less. If my request as to this property is not met at your office and is sold at a lower price I will take the matter up to Court.

Your consideration and endeavour to meet my request to your utmost will be greatly appreciated.

Yours truly

Shotaro Nakamura Reg. #08472.
