                                                - 9 -                                                   
                  owned cars, art, etc with great value in that boom time                               
                  economy.                                                                              
                  Dr. Bennett still owns a lot of stuff (real estate,                                   
                  cars, an antique business, etc etc.)                                                  
                  I'm sure that Dr. Bennett plans to repay the loan as                                  
                  soon as the economy allows him to convert his assets                                  
                  without losing his shirt.  He says he will repay the                                  
                  loan, and I believe him.                                                              
                  10.  Moreover, it is my understanding that the Saudis                                 
                  are not pressing this matter, and have corroborated all                               
                  details of Dr. Bennett's story.  Is this correct?  If                                 
                  so what is the problem?                                                               
                  Best Regards,                                                                         

                  Charles Tilton.                                                                       

                  Petitioner told Mr. Tilton to retype the letter on Mr.                                
            Tilton's letterhead, sign it, and send it to Michael J. Asselin.                            
            Mr. Asselin was petitioner's representative and held a valid Form                           
            2848 (Power of Attorney and Declaration of Representative).  Mr.                            
            Tilton refused to carry out these instructions.  On February 17,                            
            1993, Mr. Tilton wrote to Mr. Asselin concerning his recollection                           
            of petitioner's explanation of the automobile sales in 1988.  In                            
            his letter, Mr. Tilton stated:                                                              

                  At the beginning of 1989 I stopped at Terrys[sic]                                     
                  office to pick up his 1988 tax information.  He told me                               
                  that his wife Linda had been paid off and the divorce                                 
                  was final.  He told me he had sold an auto collection                                 
                  belonging to a friend of his and this person was                                      
                  letting him borrow the money to pay off Linda and some                                
                  other bills.  I asked him if he had received a                                        
                  commission on the sale and was any part of the payment                                
                  to Linda for alimony.  He said there was no commission                                
                  or alimony paid.
