PAROLE BOARD MEMORANDUM

Date Sept. 16, 1943 To: Miss Kelley

Name

Institution No.

I would be very glad for you to continue as Parole Visitor for Barbara Brown, knowing that Barbara has a great deal of confidence in you, but I feel very strongly that Barbara should be seen once a month.

If it is not possible for you to get to Boston once a month, perhaps you can arrange for Barbara to come to Framingham to see you. I am sure it is quite risky in this case to allow this parolee to go (four months) with no personal interview, advice or assistance.

If you think these requirements are more than you can meet with your other responsibilities, let me know. Otherwise I will assume you can comply and that I will receive a monthly report from you.

F. E. Bode

P.S. . I have today written to Barbara inviting her to come to the State House on Monday morning so that we can get caught up on her situation to date.

REFORMATORY FOR WOMEN SEP 21 1943 FRAMINGHAM

Dear Miss Kelley: Needless to say, I hope, the reason I did not get up Tues or later was the heavy rain. I will be up Mon or Tues. A.M. of next week. Will stay at the Kendall over-nite. Looking forward to seeing you. Love, Barbara [Oct 28. 1943]
