He said for me to send him $20 at a time This was on the morning of August I that this conversation took place He advised mo to be careful and not to send the money too quick. He said my name is Frank F. Merrill. 1500 Eleventh East Tells of Conversation. "That same night Merrill was standing on the wall.
