November 20th, 1928. Mr. Geo. W. Pesinger, New Amsterdam Casualty Company, 51 Maiden Lane, N.Y.C. Dear Mr. Pesinger: Answering your letter of November 17th: We took Mr. Smith's and Mr. Markley's advice in the matter and are trying to arrange an electroscopic examination of Mrs. Metz and Mrs. Tuft, as well as a test of Mrs. Canfield, who has already instituted suit. I am informed by Mr. Weeks of Congleton, Stallman & Hoover, that Mrs. Metz worked for us under the name of Ethelwynne Peer. Her employment began May 1,1916, and she quit work for us some time before November 15,1918, The first typed pay-roll we ever had was that of November 15th, 1918, and she does not appear on that. Mr. Weeks states that he will try to ascertain from Mrs. Metz, the exact date she left. Mrs. Tuft worked for us under the name of Helen Phillips, and her date of employment began May 28th,1917, and she last appeared on our pay-roll under the date of August 24th,1921. There may be a portion of the time between these two dates which she did not work, but this has not been ascertained as yet. We are also enclosing herewith, for your information, copies of all correspondence had with Messrs Congleton, Stallman & Hoover regarding the claims of these two women. We shall send to you any additional information which may come to hand. Very truly yours, CBLee:RH President. enclosures
