by Felice Picano


  Unquestionably, according to various documentation we’ve found, only the most salient of which this office has obtained so far and enclosed for your perusal, Neal Bartram somehow also lived from approximately the fall of 1940 through December 1, 1989, dying around the age of seventy-five [sic].

  Whatever really happened to the Missing Person Neal Percival Bartram, given all the evidence herein collected, this office cannot assess a finding of Homicide or Death by Foul Play.

  I’m afraid it’s back to you, Wayne—Happy Turkey Day!
