</s>2001 Mountain View Drive Mount Vernon, Wash. 98273 September 2, 1968. Federal Bureau of Investigation Washington, D. C. (Subject: Robert F. Kennedy) Gentlemen) Going through some old newspapers the other day I came upon a dated issue containing an item re Martin Luther King's assassination, captioned: "Kennedy pulled trigger -- Carmichael," and which clip- ping I enclose herewith ... Why? -- well, I read the article and then an amazing thought flashed across my mind.

In view of this, I am wondering if it has come to the attention of the F.B.I. that there could 2 SEP 6 perhaps be a connection between the subsequent SERMINALS-56-156-1840 iniation of Robert F . Kennedy and this Mr. Stokely-Seremized-INXED. SEARCHED-SERMINALED-INEXED.
