Subject:  Checking Account Number #xxxxx-xxxxx

Dear Bank Officer:

Please close this account, effective immediately.

Due to  the government  fraud which I have disclosed in my recent
correspondence to  the  Governor,  the  California  Secretary  of
State, the  Secretary of  the Treasury, and my Representative and
Senators in Congress, I have had to take steps to protect myself.

To this  end, the  corporation previously known as "Corpus, Inc."
has been  dissolved Nunc Pro Tunc.  This means that my signatures
on all  documents bearing  this  name  are  now  null  and  void,
including the  original articles  of incorporation  and any  bank
signature cards.

Likewise, the  so-called "Tax  ID" associated with account number
xxxxx-xxxxx  has   been  revoked,   per  a  formal  affidavit  of
revocation which  has now  been filed  with the  Secretary of the
Treasury in Washington, D.C.

If you  need any additional clarification from me in this matter,
please write  to me  care of  the above address.  Henceforth, all
communication must be in writing.

Thank you very much for your consideration.


Sincerely yours,

/s/ John E. Trumane

Dear Peggy:

Please accept  my apology  for taking  so long to respond to your
letter of  March 11, 1992.  Obviously, I am already several weeks
behind in my correspondence.

In  order  to  keep  proper  administrative  records,  I  am  now
requesting banks  with whom  I deal  to put all communications in
writing.

For your  information, I have recently published an authoritative
book which  is highly  critical of  the federal  government.   In
order to  protect myself  against possible future retaliation, it
is important to document my actions every step of the way.

Peggy, thank  you very  much for  your  patience,  and  for  your
compassion, during these difficult times for the Republic.

I will look forward to hearing from you in writing.


Sincerely yours,

/s/ John E. Trumane

Subject:  Checking Account #xxxxx-xxxxx

Dear Peggy:

Thank you  very much  for your  kind letter  dated April 13, 1991
[sic].  I assume that you meant to date the letter "1992" instead
of "1991".

Having worked  as an  information systems  development consultant
for more than 20 years, I do certainly understand why the Bank of
America cannot  delete a  tax ID  number, as  you explain in your
letter.   I appreciate  the speed with which you investigated and
documented the bank's rules for me.

In your  letter, you also explained that "the only alternative is
that the  accounts be  closed."   I would  like to  exercise this
option by closing the above named account.

Please open  a new personal checking account for me, and transfer
all remaining  funds in  the above-named  account into  this  new
account.   As of  today, the current balance in the above account
was ten dollars and ten cents ($10.10, see enclosed).

As already  explained to  you in  prior correspondence,  I  am  a
"nonresident alien"  as defined  in Title  26.  As such, I am not
required to  have a  social security number.  Please select plain
personal checks  for me  from the options available, and have the
following printed on those checks:

Dear Peggy:

Thank you  for your note, dated April 24, 1992.  I have completed
the signature card which you enclosed with your note.

Please note that I have modified the signature card so as to show
no "Other  Bank Relationships".  You recall that my letter to you
of April  20, 1992  instructed  you  to  close  checking  account
#xxxxx-xxxxx (see  attached).   The administrative  record should
now show that this account is permanently closed.

Please note also that the signature card which you sent to me was
not accompanied  by the  information referred to by the following
statement found on the card:

     "The written  information which  we give you is part of this
     agreement and tells you the current terms of each account."

No such  "written information" has yet been provided to me.  This
is the  reason why  I modified  the card to say "NONE DISCLOSED",
followed by my initials "JT".

Thank you very much for your consideration.

SUBJECT:  Form W-8 Certificate of Foreign Status


Dear Ms. Major:

     Please be advised that John E. Trumane is exempt from backup
withholding, pursuant  to Department  of the  Treasury,  Internal
Revenue Service  Publication Number 515 (Rev. Dec. 1990) Page 15,
Column 1, viz:


     Backup withholding.   A  payer of  interest,  dividends,  or
     patronage dividends, a broker, or a barter exchange may have
     to withhold  20% of each payment or transaction if the payee
     does not  provide a  correct taxpayer identification number.
     Generally,  nonresident   alien  individuals   and   foreign
     corporations, partnerships,  and estates and trusts that are
     not engaged  in a  U.S. trade or business and do not have an
     office or  place of  business in  the United  States are not
     required to have U.S. taxpayer identification numbers.  They
     are not  subject to  any backup withholding because they are
     not required  to have  an identifying  number  and  have  no
     number to provide to a payer or broker.

     Except in  the case  of dividends, the payee should use Form
     W-8, Certificate  of Foreign  Status,  to  tell  the  payer,
     broker, or  barter exchange  that the payee is a nonresident
     alien and is not subject to backup withholding.


     For your further edification, please be advised that John E.
Trumane is  a  FOREIGN  and  NONRESIDENT  ALIEN  individual  with
respect to  the "United  States",  that  he  is  not  effectively
connected (related)  to any U.S. "trade or business", and that he
does not  have an  office or  place of  business in  the  "United
States".     John  E.  Trumane  is  outside  both  the  exclusive
territorial and political jurisdiction of the "United States".

     I hereby  lodge my  Form W-8  Certificate of  Foreign Status
with the  Bank of  America, Corte Madera, California.  A properly
executed Form  W-8 Certificate of Foreign Status will satisfy all
of the tax responsibilities of any entity acting in a "fiduciary"
capacity within the jurisdictional requirements of said Form.

Dear Ann:

I mailed you two separate versions of the enclosed W-8 today.

The "other"  one is  incorrect, because the perjury jurat was not
executed "without the United States."

The  enclosed   W-8  has   been  modified   with  the   necessary
corrections.

Please discard the "other" W-8 as soon as you receive it.

You should  retain the one which was "executed without the United
States."

I am sorry for any confusion this may have caused.
