NORTH STREET GREENVILLE, SOUTH CAROLINA February 9, 1970 The Honorable Harry Dent Special Counsel to the President The White House Washington, D. C. Dear Harry: Please do me a personal favor. I have a niece who worked in Strom Thurmond's office this past summer. Not being a blood relative, I cannot take credit for her good looks. She attended Converse College for one year and is presently enrolled in the USC system. Probably you have thousands of requests for a person without any real technical education on the White House staff. She is not that interested in the amount of money to be paid and of course, could only work this summer. I suspect that her reason for wanting to come back to Washington is because her boyfriend is connected with some company in the district. I don't even know whether you would possibly have any use for a person such as Ellen. To me she would be an excellent messenger with a most pleasing personality. In the event anything like this is possible, I would appreciate your letting me know so I can give you her name and more about her. We enjoyed seeing Postmaster General Blount and look forward to seeing the Vice-President when he comes down and of course, expect to see you at the same time. Sincerely, Bobbie Robert A. Clay RAC/cw Her nave is Ellen Braddy of Aiken, S.C. she in 20ar 2 yrs an old B.
