Dear Sir:

On June 13th, 1944, I received a notification re sale of my property at Latimer Road, Cloverdale, B. C.

The price at which you sold the property is much too low. It is not even the taxation price of the property. Could you not reconsider the price and have it made more reasonable?

Mr. & Mrs. Ford Harvie, who are at present renting the property have asked if it could be sold to them. Could arrangements be made to transfer the sale to their name?

I hope this will receive your utmost consideration.

I remain,

Yours very truly,

Mrs. T. Watanabe,
Reg. #06858.
