Did they pay you not to put the book out. I thought you were gone on down the road & each time I think that you surprize me. I am begaining (sic) to think you like me…..I got 11 pictures - the crooks took one…..Red [i.e. Lynette 'Squeaky' Fromme, 'Red' being her name within the Manson Family] say she can't git tapes in her last letter…..I sent you the card to see if it matches up with whatever - a big part of what happens to me is in your hands'.

Nuel Melton Emmons (1927-2002) American photojournalist and biographer of Manson. Emmons first met Manson briefly when he was imprisoned for automobile theft in 1956, and again under similar circumstances in 1960.
