Dear Frank,

Thank you for the warning. It was thoughtful of you to attach a copy of Ms. Bellweather's mug shot for identification purposes. I have alerted Manuel, head of campus security, and he, too, will be on the look-out for the young lady in question. I did meet the brother recently. He seemed lost and confused, and basically harmless. Of course, this could have just been a ruse to lull me into a false sense of security. I shall be doubly vigilant.

Perhaps it would be helpful if you were to tour the campus...get the lay of the land...reconnoiter, as it were? Perhaps you might notice something I've missed, since you're the professional. I'd be happy to show you around. I get fifty percent off at the campus cafe and they make a mean apple strudel and a cup of coffee so strong it could just about stand, salute, and walk out the door.

In any event, I'll step up my patrols around the dorm, and keep you apprised of any developments.

Sincerely,

MDM
