�SURPLUS SALVAGE STORE
ARMY. NAVY AND FACTORY SURPLUS
117 E . TENNESSEE ST.
FLORENC E , ALA.
Feb . 10, 1955
Dea r Leo :
I have
he s ita ted in Vlriting to y ou befor e now, hoping t hat I might
find some other means of getting my self straightened out , but I donrt
know of any other way than to ask for your financial air! .
Alth1pugh I fe el that I am making goorl money "'B0 . 50 per week after
taxes . I have been unable t o manage , or meet my obligations incurred because
of Patti ' s illnes s . I still owe t wo doc tors , part of the hospital bill yet ,
and ot her bills , even though I rec ently borrowed from t he bank her e , and
have been overdrawing from the store .
There is no doubt in my mind ,that the strain in our budget has oc curg
because of Patti ' s ill ne ss . She is much better , a nrt woul d L ke t o fi nrt a
i
part time job t o help out , but the doctor says No for awhile . I am try ing to
find work at night to meet my obligat ions , but so far have had no luck.
As far as asking for a raise , the store can ' t afford it . I have
incr ~ae
ed sales here about 16%. sales f or the l B months that I have been here will
be about!.27 , oOO . M big hearterl boss sent me
y
~ 10
bonus for Xmas . I am making
inquiries for another job, but haven rt had any luck as y et .
'flY folks don ' t have the
mone~
t o senrl me . I rion ' t want to cause t h em
anymore worries or heartaches , by asking . A grea t par t of Patti1s t r ouble
has been financial ins ecur ity . I have trierl t o gd!ge Patti what she wanted ,
even though I
coul~
not
a ffor ~
s ome of her wants .-full time mai d which
costs t 72 a month, I can rt affor d it , but s he had it u p wrtil 2 weeks ago, 2
telephones , and a l ot of small things .
If you are able to sign a not e for me for $300 for 12 months , I would
appreciate it very much . If you are unable t o do this , ! will understand , and
won tt ask again . Patti does n ot know of t his letter . ?zy only alternative is
�to send Patti anti the Baby home ,rent or sell the house , and look for a
mpre lucrative
job , sinc ~
I have no sav ings a c count or any means of
supporting them until I 1o find sQmething .
