Mr, Calvin P.'Reid, ' The Travelers, Liability Sept., Claim Division, 30-42 E. 42nd St,, New York City*
Dear Mr, Reid:
'
I am enclosing herewith a copy off the
record which I have in the case of
a
tank wagon driver for the Jenney M a n i f f a ^ n H n ^ ^ o ^ a n y
of Boston. There were a number of typographical and
other errors in the report which I have corrected to the
best of my ability. It seems perfectly obvious that Mr.
Lewis had a case of splenic leukemia, and you are already
familiar with my feeling as to the possibility of any
relationship existing between this condition and exposure
to gasoline either of the ordinary type or Ethyl.Gasoline.
These conditions have been described and known for many
years. The cause back of them is entirely unknown. It
has never been associated with chemical poisoning of any
kind so far as I know, and to attribute it to either
lead or gasoline is to make the wildest kind of guess.
I am sending you also a copy of the " letter which Mr* Feillngham of the Standard Oil Gompany (Indiana) sent to me in'reply to my query on the status of the McCarn case.
Very truly yours,
RAKEJ Enel, 2
