Dear. Mr. Neumiller,
   
I am writing to you again in behalf of my husband, Walter J. Collins, No. 12824, an inmate at Represa, Calif.
   
I understand that his name appears on the June calendar and that he
will be called before the prison board some time this month for a
hearing.
   
I wish that you would consider a parole for him as I really need his
support. I am not at all able to work and am solely dependant upon
others for a livelihood. Due to worry over my health and conditions in
general I spend a great part of my time in bed with nervous breakdowns.

If
Walter were released, I am sure that he would be able to secure a
position and support me, thus enabling me to regain my health.

I certainly have suffered thru the loss of our only son, whom you know was kidnapped and thot to have been at the Northcott
murder farm. Then the brutality of the L.A. police and my imprisonment
in the psychopathic hospital because I would not accept someone else’s
child as my lost boy caused the loss of my position which was my only
source of support, as well as the loss of my health.

I am really
destitute, having to rely upon strangers for help. I have a sick sister
who is unable to work on account of her health as much as she is
willing to help me.

I am writing to you from a humane standpoint
and hope that you will just give my husband another chance. I am sure
that he will make good. He has been imprisoned for nearly eight years
and we both have suffered terribly in that length of time.

I
know that should a parole be granted at this meeting I would regain my
health and I would certainly be most grateful to you. When a person’s
health is gone this old world looks very dark and dreary.

Hoping you will give this consideration and thanking you for your previous courtesy, I beg to remain,

ps. Please do what you can for Walter.
Thank you.
Mrs. C.
