affair
in a quick way will be better for both — don't by afraid about the baby
— keeping care of us day and night. We also will feed him according to
the diet. We are interested to send him back in gut health. And ransom
was made aus for 50000 $ but now we have to take another person to it
and
probably have to keep the baby for a longer time as we expected. So the
amount will be 70000 20000 in 50$ bills 25000 $ in 20$ bill 15000 $ in

your

is very well and will be feed according to the diet. Best dank for
information
about it. We are interested to send your boy back in gut health. It is
necessary to make a world-affair out of it, or to get your boy back as
soon as possible. Why did you ignore oue letter which we left in the
room
the baby would be back long ago. You would not get any result from
Polise
becauce our kinaping was pland for a year allredy. But we were afraid
the
boy would not be strong enough. Ouer ransom was made out for 50000$ but
now we have to put another to it as propperly have to hold the baby
longer
as we expected so it will be 70000$ 20000 in 50$ bills 25000 in 25$
12000$
in 10$ bills and 10000 in 5$ bills. We warn you again not to mark any
bills
or take them for one ser.No. We will inform you latter how to deliver
the

If the kidnappers of our
child
are unwilling to deal direct we fully authorize ‘Salvy' Spitale and
Irving
Bitz to act as our go-between. We will also follow any other methods
suggested
by the kidnappers that we can be sure will bring the return of our
child.
Charles Lindbergh Anne
Lindbergh
I offer all I can scrape
together
so a loving mother may again have her child and Col. Lindbergh may know
that the American people are grateful for the honor bestowed upon them
by his pluck and daring. Let the kidnappers know that no testimony of
mine,
or information coming from me will be used against them. I offer $1,000
which I have saved from my salary as additional to the suggested ransom
of $50,000 which is said to have been demanded by Col. Lindbergh. I
stand
ready at my own expense to go anywhere, alone, to give the kidnapper
the
extra money and promise never to utter his name to any person. If this
is not agreeable, then I ask the kidnappers to go to any Catholic
priest
and return the child unharmed, with the knowledge that any priest must
hold inviolate any statement which may be made by the kidnappers.
