Charleston, SC: Arcadia, 2004. Transcript D. P. White 128 Rhode Island Ave. N. W. Washington, D. C. Chief of Police Apopka, Fla. 128 Rhode Island Ave. N.W. Washington D.C. March 16, 1928 Chief of Police Apopka, Fla. Dear Sir - Some time ago, when my husband died (rather last September) after sending messages I could not get an answer until I wrote you. Six months have passed. I have written even since then and I did not here until this week when I got this letter which I have enclosed in here. Will you please say to Mrs. Ella Wall (which is my husbands sister) that I am not at Florence (my home) at this time I've been here since November my girls school will close in June after which I'll be at home in Florence S.C. Now if I have to go there before that time to get the Papers that they refer to will cost me $32.20 because I'll have to come back up here as I am here with the girl until she is out of school. I don't know what they will do about it. I have papers etc. put up and no one is to go in there. Everything has been put away carefully. Please ask her what she wants me to do about it. She was sick. Is she better now? Thanking you in advance for this favor. Respectfully, Daisy P. White Apopka Apopka Chief of Police Florence, South Carolina law enforcement Mundy, Carol E. police Rhode Island Avenue Wall, Ella Washington, D.C. White, Daisy P.
