[Letter from Tom C. Williams to W. B. Dickerson, July 5, 1939]
Letter from Tom C. Williams to W. B. Dickerson discussing interests of Earl Willard Meyer. Williams interviewed Earl, as well as Stella Meyer Heyssel and Herman Meyer who initially agreed to execute a guardian's deed, but have changed their minds. Earl wanted to divest all his interest in exchange for 480 acres in Sherman County. Earl and Stella also received $150.00 in cash from the Steigleder estate. Williams knows Earl's signature is not binding, so he has decided to let Herman (Earl's stepfather) decide how they should proceed with the interests. Williams confers with an attorney, John Stegner, who motions that Earl should give Williams an oil and gas lease by virtue of a guardian lease. This is a way for Herman and Earl to receive cash. However, they will not do anything at the current moment. Williams mentions other disputes between the heirs of the land. He suggest they try to obtain a guardian oil and gas lease in interest of Earl and to pay cash for the land in Sherman County.
