looking for. So I had my postal inspector in charge call our Chicago

because he could have bought it that morning and that he could have
gotten it by airmail that afternoon, so they began to search and within
10 minutes they called back and said they had a money order in that
amount issued on, I don't know that I show, but it was that money order
in an amount issued at the main post office, which is the same place as
