Hi Barry,

A guy named Jack Archer in Corpus Christi, Texas died April 15th. He made
his money in oil. His only heir is his brother, with whom Jack had a falling
out some time ago. So Jack changed his will and cut his brother out of it.
The first will had 50% of the estate going to the brother and 50% going to
various charities. The new will, which was executed last week, gives all of
the estate to charities with Christian Associates receiving 50%.

To complicate matters, Jack's brother had him declared incompetent a few
years ago and basically pillaged the estate, although I don't know any of
the details. The former executor of the will, Peggy Ryan who has been Jack's
personal assistant for many years, is our contact person. She is very
supportive of the charities receiving the inheritance. She is not in the
will and did not want to or need to be.

Christian Associates is a registered 501c3 non-profit in the state of
Oregon.

My boss, Linus Morris (President of CA) and I will be going to Corpus
Christi from 19-21 May for a memorial service for Jack. I will be meeting
with Peggy at that time to figure out what's going on.

So my question is whether Christian Associates would be well served to be
represented by someone.

Thanks,

Brian
