Dear Ms. Moore.

We regret that we must disappoint you in regard to your recent request. We should explain that our service functions in a manner similar to that of the reference department of a general public library. As such, we are always pleased to provide photo copies of items from standard published resources available in our collections. You’re requirements are more isometric than we’re able to deal with. Therefore, we’re sending the address of the only association listed under “hemp” and a print-out of articles on the topic (one is enclosed). We’re sorry we couldn’t help this time.

Sincerely

Laurie Judon Research Associate
