Sumner Simpson to W. H. Dunn Ordering Raybestos-Manhattan's 1937 Payment for Dr. Gardner's Experiments (1937)

A one-page letter of March 13, 1937, from Sumner Simpson, president of Raybestos-Manhattan, to W. H. Dunn, the company's comptroller in Passaic, New Jersey. Simpson asked Dunn to send Johns-Manville a check for $666.67 "to cover the Raybestos-Manhattan, Inc.'s share of the expense of the Dust experiments of Dr. Leroy Gardner for the year 1937." He enclosed Vandiver Brown's letter of February 27 and the Memorandum of Agreement of November 20, 1936, and asked for them back: Dunn could copy them at his office, "as I want to keep the papers intact in my files."
