The following lstters ordered mRileC to J. D. Baker, County Sheriff, and JameB M. Noland, Distriet Attorneyi

Honorable .Te.mes B:, Baker, Ccrl!nty Sheriff , Montazuma County, Colorado. Cortez, Colo.

Dear Mr. Eaker:

Apparently W@ have no ulternat1ve than to pay your November and December expense and phone bills contracted in connection with the c�mpbell-Barlow ce.s-e investigation. However, we feel that these cla.ln1s should be :siupported by a writtein explanation. :Phone tolls in -t,he amount or $1J0�50 are Un:t"eesonable. Necessity of the Color ado Springs tr-1pa and maintenance of youraeli and deputy there may ti@ questioned by some taxpayers.

It is the desire o:f this Board to fully cooperate with your offic e in �a tters of this kind, bo'fiever, t@fore obliga..ting 1..he cou!lty further in this, or any like caees, we will expect yo ur office to first obtain approval of such expenditures�

Ver-y truly yours,

EC,\RI> OF COUNTY COMMISSIO!il:RB.

Honara,ble James M� Noland, District Attorney, 6th Judicial District, Durongo, Colorad o

near Mr. Noland:

Your att�ntion i� called to ?hone expenee in conne�tion �ith the CampbellBarlow investiga�ion. We have claim s cOvering toll� made by the County Sheriff's offioe in the amount of &130.50; claim . .fl-om your cffice in the SJ!lount o� $19.65; and i'rO!ll the offiee of yotrr assi�tant in the w:iount of $102.03.

We question the n�cesaity for many of the� e �alls, feeling that in nany �asea ni to le!tter s by \lestern Union would have EB.Ved the t,a.xpayers many,. manr dollars ..

In the f\lture we would suggest that your bffice obtain appro�al in advBil�s for such unusual and heavy expenee.

v�ry truly yours,
