May 19th 1922

Mr. G. H. Stephenson,

911 London Road,
Duluth, Minnesota

Dear Sir:-
Your letter addressed to the Warden has been referred to me. I am very sorry to know that anyone there is disposed to annoy you as indicated in you letter. I have sent your letter to General Resche, probation officer, whose office is in the court house in Duluth and have said to him that you will call on him which I wish you would do. General Resche is entirely friendly and reliable and will advise you what to do and if necessary will take any action that seems proper in the matter.
Go and see him at once and be perfectly frank and plain in your statements and talk to him.
Yours very truly


State Parole Agent
