The Public Eye

Personal notice, dangerous my stock and trade. If the job's too tough for you to handle, you got a job for me, George Valentine. Right full details. Dandered Oil Company of California on behalf of independent chevron gas stations and standard stations throughout the West invites you to let George do it.

The public eye, a transcribed adventure of George Valentine. My dear Mr. Valentine, My husband is Ferrell Pearson, so I'm sure you'll realize at once the importance of my letter. If you've lived long in this city or state, you must be aware of his position in politics as well as in business.

Unfortunately, when you're in the public eye as we are, you're also at the public's mercy. A reputation of spotless integrity sometimes needs protection from the dangerous selfish fools who do exist in this world. Valentine we need your protection immediately come as fast as you can and please please don't mention this request to a single person
