EFFORTS TO BREAK
CHAIN LETTERS fFAlL
j
Contributions to the fund for the I
establishment of a hospital in j
France for the treatment of the face!
and jaw. started by a chain letter1
system begun more than twi years j
I age by Louis Herritte. former consul ■
for France at Seattle, continue to pour
in from all sections of the country,
despite the repeated protests of Pierre
d-Humllly de Chevilly, Mr. Herritte's I
successor in charge of the Seattle con.
an late.
The hospital for which the fund
was started having been completed
long since, Consul de-HumiTly de Vre
villy has made a number of unsuccess
ful attempts to break the chain. When I
he came to Seattle he found n fund of
about $1,500 on deposit in the bank
for savings, and he wrote the French!
ambassador at Washington, n. C. fori
Instruction as to what to do with the '
fund.
“Break the chain," was tht. first i
, i
reply received. Later Consul d’lfii
milly de Chevilly was notified that
the money on deposit in Seattle and ;
collected by the chain letters would
be turned over to some/:' nerlcan in
stitution for the use of American sol
diers. Consul d’Humilly de Chevilly
is now awaiting an order as to the in
stitution to which the fund is to be
made payable.
Meanwhile postoffice officials at
Seattle have been instructed to re
turn to the senders who have beenj
made victims of th0 chain letters all j
contributions where the names of the
senders can be learned.
