Mr. Robert Horman MacLean Hanna and Brophy, Attorneys 444 Market Street San Francisco, California
Dear Mr. MacLean:
I have just finished a long letter to Doctor Patterson, in which I have given him my view of the medical procedure that is required to deal effectively with cases of actual or merely alleged lead poisoning from the medico-legal viewpoint. My purpose in this may be disadvantageous to you, from a certain viewpoint, since I would hope to avoid any kind of litigation. However, in the present state of human affairs, while this is the goal, it is dubious that it can be achieved. The more likely outcome will be to provide evidence of the right sort at the right time, so as to involve you less frequently in ambiguous situations.
With this accomplished for the benefit of Dr. Patterson and, indirectly. General Motors, I have done my duty, and can now be satisfied to send a bill for ray services. This is not to hasten the matter but to get it behind me before X forget all about it.
Let me say that it wa3 a pleasure to have made your acquaintance and to have been associated with you in the legal action in this case. Such matters are not always so simple and straightforward in their handling.
Cordially yours.

P.S.
I have no record of the proper designation of this case, and no recollection of the employee's name. If necessary, you can fill this in for me. Thanks.
