Has my letter to David Koresh, dated March 19, 1993, been delivered to him? If so, when was it delivered? What was his response? I would appreciate hearing from you.

I stand ready to assist in any way I can, consistent with my responsibilities to my client, to bring this intolerable situation to a peaceful resolution. I believe, as do Jack Zimmerman, Jim Levine and other responsible lawyers retained by families of persons inside Mount Carmel, that competent advice from a lawyer can only serve to reassure those inside the compound that they will have their day in court and that their rights would be protected. I think they need to hear this from their own lawyers.

Please take this as simply a personal note of appreciation for the professional manner and courtesy with which you, Bob Ricks and Byron Sage have treated me. In that same vein, and with no offense intended, I pass along the enclosed cartoon from the New Yorker of March 8.
