New Letter Incident Reported in Nigeria

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

American embassy officials in Lagos yesterday were reported investigating a purloined letter" similar to the one which involved a United States Peace Corps worker earlier this week.

The West African Pilot on Wednesday featured a letter allegedly written by Craig Walker, a member of the Experiment in International Living, in which the Nigerin Government was described as "corrupt and irresponsible."

Walker's letter, addressed to a California friend, was left behind at the home of a Nigerian family where he had been staying. His host had read the letter "out of curiosity," according to the Nigerian newspaper.

The paper claimed Walker had written that the "Nigerian people live daily with poverty and disease as well as with a corrupt and irresponsible government."

Margery Michelmore, whose intercepted postcard touched off a student demonstration in the country a few days ago, was reported en route to Bermuda yesterday.
