Bush, President Zapata Off-Shore Company Box 3195 Midland, Texas Dear George, Your letter this morning confirmed the stories we have heard that you would probably be moving your family and baggage to Houston shortly. Marian and I remember entering our life in Midland with you and Barbara at about the same time. We know that the two of you and your children regret leaving the wonderful town as much as Marian and I did. Midland was most unique in that all friends were true friends. This is a characteristic that you find is not prevalent in larger cities and SOA we will always look fondly on our memories of Midland. Marian and all of us up here wish you and your family improved personal benefits from Houston and you and your business a very great success from living there. Plan to be in Houston the middle of this week and make a call on your local office. Hope that my good fortune will find you there at the same time. Best regards.

I know Barbara will be glad to live where you must spend most of your time. The Tulsa Squash Team feels it was fortunate that you were unable to play in the recent match since we heard you are the leading and toughest player in West Texas. When you get settled in Houston perhaps we can work out a Tulsa-Houston match. As soon as you move to Houston I expect the Zapata Off-Shore stock to get back up to about $16, where it belongs. When you buy a home in Houston, I hope you will phone us collect to bind it and we will work out the same Package deal, including your furniture and personal liability, as you have been carrying in Midland. One of the companies we represent, the Insurance Company of North America, has a special filing in Texas which saves money and gives the usual broad coverage.

We are trying to sell our house in Midland at which time we will all move. If we cannot sell our house immediately we will wait until after school is out in June to Move. After eleven years in West Texas I am, of course, upset at leaving, but it makes a good deal of sense from a business point of view. After we get settled there I will give you a call and perhaps we can in- troduce our wives to one another. Please don't bother to acknowledge this letter, but I did want to tell you about this.
