The Bookshelf, The Parlor, The Young Texas Reader, and the Monthly

The Texas Bookshelf is different from the The Texas Parlor, http://texasparlor.blogspot.com/ . The Texas Parlor carries "general" bookish information and non-book information and even different Texana news and notes of use to the bibliographically challenged and other nosey folks intersted in historical, literary, and cultural observations. Will's Texana Monthly may carry material from either blog, but extends itself beyond those, especially for longer compilations or treatments. The Monthly, the Bookshelf and the Parlor are all companions. So, is the Young Texas Reader http://youngtexasreader.blogspot.com/ which specialized on books and such things for the youngest to the teenagers.

Private and Confidential Inquiry

Dearest Confidant, I hope this message finds you well. My name is Hammond Cole, and I serve as a Business Relationship Manager at a reputable fiduciary institution. I am writing to you in a strictly private capacity regarding a matter that calls for the utmost discretion, integrity, and mutual trust. During a recent routine audit and investigation within our private investment division, certain records came to light that suggest a possible connection between you and a deceased client of the bank—specifically, as a potential next of kin. Before any formal steps are taken, I felt it imperative to reach out to you personally to verify this potential linkage and to discuss the matter further in confidence. I kindly request that you respond to this message via my personal email address, Hammondcole@mail.co.uk at your earliest convenience. Thank you for your attention to this sensitive matter. I look forward to hearing from you. Yours sincerely, Hammond Cole Business Relationship Manager
