Woodburn & Bartlett, Esqre., Counsellors-at-Law, Reno, Nevada.

Gentlemen: reference to the matter of

against , being an action brought by you in the Second Judicial Court of the State of Nevada, summons file:i October 9th, 1917, permit me to state that Kr. J. L. ~, the defendant in said action has consulted me to ay wi·th reference to the action.

Of course I understand ~hat the plaintiff would like us to retain an Attorney right in Nevada, for ycu and 1 understand ~oroughly that her divorce is of no value even were a decree granted, her divorce only beipg valid in the State of Nevada,

·. unless our client files an appearance by Attorney within your State.

lor your information, would state that the complaint is unwarranted and not founded upon fact. The defendant has a splendi~ counter-claim but will not interpose one unless we deem it advisable.

We have not gone ·into the matter with him at all as we see no occaaion for doing so at this time. We might advise a course for him . to pursue, provided you send us an Amended Complaint, strik-ing out from your complaint that part thereof upon the last page of the complaint, beginning at line 7 and end-ing at line 17. Should you do this, it is more probable that we will advise the defendant to app'ear in the action through a Nevada Attorney but not ' contest the matter.

October 29th 1 1917. .... _______ .

Woodburn & Bartlett, Eeqra., Reno, Nevada.

Gentlemen:

We are in receipt of your favor of October 24th, relative to the above matter, and after receiving same we sent for our client and find that the conduct of the plaintiff while she resided in the City was such that no Court here would award her a Decree nor would they give her the care or control of the children at any time.

We further find upon speaking to the children, that none of them desire to see their mother again and would not live with her for five minutes. If we were to go into the meri te of this case with you, we are of the opinion that you would have nothi:ag further to do with it.

We feel however, that if this woman wants a decree, she ought to have one which would be good in any part of the Units'. States or elsewhere. She can only obtain it however, by amending her complaint as suggestei by us, for if she comes here, it will be a case of inviting trouble for herself.

We might add that there is nothing in this matter for us as we are only writing on be-half of the defendant as a matter of friendship, and the plaintiff can elect which oouree she will pursue, and if she elects to adopt that stated in our letter of the 16th inst., we will advise the defendant according-ly.

Very respectfully yours,

DECEMBER THIRTEENTH ' 1 9 . 1 7

We are in receipt of your favor of the 25th inst.

in relation to the abov"' ~ntitled matter, and upon rec•ipt of

your l"'tter, we el!nt f'o-r our cli"!nt and ... have just had an inter-

view- 'd th him.

w~ have ~xplained to him the advantages of divorce

being good all over +.,]1.e world, its · effect upon his future and

those of his children, and ha've advised him that, in our judg-

ment, it is right and prop"'r that an attorney in Nevada eholll.14 . .

-be retained to protect his interests.

We thank you very much· for the information respecting

r~putable attorneys in your City,and will, no doubt, retain one

of the gP.ntlemen nam,.d. The defendant, however, is ·not in a

financial condition to retain: a_n attorney, ·and has so advised

us. He furthe.r states that he may be able to pay a small fee

about the first of the coming year, but lis present employment

is such that it' takes all he .,arne to ke~p his family.

We will take the matter up with him again in a few

days, and then let you hear from us.
