Thanks Elzie for sending, not a photo, but the page itself to our offices in Salmiya, Kuwait. We, in return, want to express our appreciation for your keen eye and spirit by sending you a check for one million dollars. The benefactor's name is John Beresford Tipton, Jr. His face was obscured by one of his high-backed leather chairs, so I didn't get to see his face. His executive secretary, a mild-mannered, good-humored, but no-nonsense man named Michael Anthony, handed me the check made out to you. Use the money wisely and thanks again!
