Dr. Gradless:
    I am wrting as a follow-up to my prior communications to you.
    I am in receipt of a 27 Oct. 2003 letter to you (at 2655 Fairview
Lane, Brookfield, WI 53045-4117) from Anne M. Roy, the Governor of the
Wisconsin Branch of the National Society Sons and Daughters of the
Pilgrims. In that letter she unequivocally stated that she was "writing
to ask that you remove the web pages concerning Wisconsin and Illinous
Branches, Sons and Daughters of the Pilgrims". In addition to your not
being authorized to use the NSSDP name, you are not authorized to
publicize the private information (names, addresses, phone #, and e-mail
addresses) of any of the officers of the Wisconsin Branch. Those
officers do not want their private information publicized on the
internet and regard your having done so as an invasion of their privacy
which must cease.
    Today I re-checked and ascertained that the web page which you have
created using the name of the Wisconsin Branch Sons and Daughters of the
Pilgrims has not yet been removed from the internet.
    My preference is to avoid legal action and thus I am making this one
final request for you immediately to remove the web page which you have
created using the name of the Wisconsin Branch of NSSDP. I also request
that you send me an e-mail advising me that said web page has been
removed from the internet. Thank you for your anticipated prompt
cooperation. Sincerely, Michael Phelps, NSSDP Counselor General.

[All persons listed on the Wisconsin Branch had given permission to the webmaster to list their names, addresses, Emails, telephone numbers].
