H. Banks 123 Duke Street
Hillcrest Samberton
Neath Road Wessex
Rowley April 23, 1990
Yorkshire


Dear Sir,


I am writing on behalf of my client, Mr Charles Adams, who was involved in a recent collision with you. Mr Adams is seriously
contemplating taking action against you for dangerous driving, and for insult and threatened assault towards him. He would,
however, consider waiving any such action should you be prepared to accept responsibility for the collision, and to offer a
suitable apology for your subsequent behaviour towards him.

I shall await your reply, and any instructions you or your legal adviser may wish to make.


Yours faithfully,

Alf Riston
