Dear Junior;

I am wondering what difficulties you are having with the Morganville painting. I have not found out since seeing you, that unless the painting is declared to be worth $1 or less, there will have to be a duty paid on the painting, even if it is a gift, so unless you have already sent it, do not insure it at all and we will declare it to be worth less than a dollar, as it has only sentimental value attached to it as a gift.

Let me know what you had to do or will have to do, and if you need some more funds. Hope you did not have a big storm, our snow here is about three inches and very wet.

Bonjouir

Dan
