The first letter is from someone in Calumet, Oklahoma, asking for advice on how to handle an estate in Mexico that has not been properly settled. The second letter is a response from Mr. Blalock in Mexico, explaining that the fees for settling the estate are high and offering some advice on how to proceed. Mr. Blalock suggests translating the will into Spanish and recording it in the state where the property is located in order to claim the estate. He also mentions that having a will in English may not have much value in settling the estate in Mexico.
