December 19, 1969 W. E. Neeld, Jr., M.D. Director, jiedical Division E.I. du Pont de Nemours & Company Chambers Works Deepwater,[New Jersey 08023 Dear Doctor Neeld: I return to you herewith the records sent to me with your letter of October 28. I also enclose a bill for my services as you requested. I'm very much afraid that I have not done very much to help you in this instance. This type of clinical case, not to speak of the personal and human problems involved, is extremely difficult to deal with fairly and wisely, and I always, or at least usually, get through them with a feeling of frustration. Such advice as I have given you, therefore, is very much like "passing the buck" back to you. Moreover, I do not find the psychiatric contribution to have been very helpful. I think it likely that lit profit from shock therapy at the hands of a competent psyehiatrSt. I know of several highly beneficial responses on the part of persons whose behavior has resembled his, and since the outlook for him is rather gloomy in any case, I would think it justified to try this therapy in his case. Some wise expenditure in this direction might benefit him greatly, and also reduce the financial liability in his case. Cordially yours, Robert A. Kehoe, M.D. Professor Emeritus of Occupational Medicine December 19, 1969 E.I. du Pont de Nemours & Company Chambers Works Deepwater, New Jersey 08023 Attn: W.E. Neeld, Jr., fif.D.

Kehoe, M.D. Professor Emeritus of Occupational Medicine University of Cincinnati Kettering Laboratory Eden and Bethesda Avenues , Cincinnati, Ohio 45219 Dear Dr. Kehoe: 1 I beg your indulgence for the long delay between our communications. I have slowly been endeavoring to complete additional consultations as you had recommended and to resee this man on an interval basis to help develop a feeling concerning him. Rather than reiterate what is contained in the enclosed additional reports, I leave them to you for your own reading and interpretation. For completeness sake I am also returning all the photocopies that I had loaned you before in case you wish to refer to any of them. This man is currently off from work since approxi mately 10/2/69 complaining of his usual headaches, insomnia, lightheadedness, and tremors of his hands. My own interpreta tion ojf: the aggregation of our various consult reports is that we will be hardput to refute that this man's symptomatology is not the result of exposure to lead in August, 1968. Whether or notI the symptoms did originate then will most likely mean very little to the compensation courts in this day and age. I had noj; forwarded you any of this man's medical records prior to August, 1968, because there was no similar symptomatology in them. It is of interest though that there had been a great deal of various and sundry reasons to be absent from work through all his employable years. Viz., he is now out for his 25th Cci.se. He has 26 eligible years service, having lost a total of 217 days until 10/19/69. This is interpreted as 8.3 days lost per eligible year. Although this record is certainly not the worst on this plant, it is far in excess of both the plant s.nd the Company average. Having an average of one illness each year gives me the impression of a person who has a predilection for being overly concerned with his health, BETTER THINGS FOR BETTER LIVING . . .
