November 29, 1939
Mr. Louis Villaume, Sr.
172 Prospect Terrace
Saint Paul,
Minnesota
Dear Mr. Villaume:
I have your letter with reference to
one Maxie Mason, a Frenchman, who you state was sent up from Ramsey county for
the crime of Murder. In reply thereto, I wish to state that a search of our
records has failed to disclose that we have or had an inmate here by this name,
who would answer to the description you gave.
We did, however, in 1921
receive one Max Mason – our #6785, a Negro, from St. Louis County for the
crime of Rape with a sentence of 7 – 30 years. He was discharged by action
of the Parole Board on September 3rd, 1925.
If the Max Mason you
have reference to is not our #6785, I would be glad to hear from you again with
any other information you may have which would help us in identifying this
man.
With kindest personal regards to yourself and family, I
am
Yours very truly,
Warden
